I really wanted to see the data you acquired about the friction of shoes on those different surfaces though and whether there is a accepted value it should be at. Because there are so many surfaces in TAS, people might be unaware of the different dangers each might have in different weather conditions (slipping, tripping). As for the second experiment, I felt it was interesting because many students fail to understand that light is really important during reading\/writing. Many students study under insufficient light and think that it's normal and not harmful to their eyes. Seeing the differences in the fluorescent light and the sunlight at different areas of our school really highlighted this point of light difference and the effects it has on us","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"43298766","dateCreated":"1317221805","smartDate":"Sep 28, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"Reginal12108676","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/Reginal12108676","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/tasibgroup4.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/43298766"},"dateDigested":1532126580,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Comment","description":"I liked how the group mentioned the detrimental effects of harsh fluorescent lighting on humans. This puts the experiment in context, providing the reasons why this lab is significant. However, I would have liked to see more for the friction area of the lab. What does the data analysis tell us about friction on different surfaces? Why should we be concerned? And according to your data, what type of shoe is best for each surface? For further investigations, a greater variety of surfaces can be tested for. Overall, I think that this is a good topic to choose, as it is one that is present daily in both student and faculty life within TAS.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"43297838","dateCreated":"1317221022","smartDate":"Sep 28, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"annaliu0503","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/annaliu0503","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/tasibgroup4.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/43297838"},"dateDigested":1532126580,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Comment ","description":"I think that this is a good topic, because it applies to the daily lives of TAS students and teachers.  However, i think further explanation about what the significance of shoe friction is.  Also, the experiment was quite limited, because you only tested the friction shoes create on a certain type of surface even though there are many different types of surfaces at TAS.  <br \/>\nI think you did a better job with relating to real world situations with the second experiment on light intensity.  Many students study or do activities in insufficient lighting, which may affect us in ways that we do not know.  This experiment informs us in this aspect, and shows us the amount of light exposure in different parts of the school.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"43290146","dateCreated":"1317213441","smartDate":"Sep 28, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"katem12112050","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/katem12112050","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/tasibgroup4.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/43290146"},"dateDigested":1532126580,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Comment","description":"I think that the shoe - friction experiment was a very creative idea, and one that is very relevant to student safety at TAS. Obviously, slipping can be a hazard. I think it would really clarify the scope of the experiment if the intent was clearly stated. Furthermore, I think that a factor is overlooked concerning the friction, and that is the amount of force exerted by the individual wearing the shoes on the surface. This would obviously vary greatly from person to person, and therefore the amount of friction that each shoe has on each different surface would vary for different people. A possible avenue for further study would be to measure the friction, but while participants are wearing the shoes. The findings might me more directly applicable to individual student safety at TAS.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"43239008","dateCreated":"1317142293","smartDate":"Sep 27, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"sunnyc12102866","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/sunnyc12102866","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/tasibgroup4.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/43239008"},"dateDigested":1532126580,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Sunnyc12102866","description":"I thought that the light intensity lab was really well organized.

I think that the walking shoes would probably have the most amount of friction. For further investigation,  the amount of friction for different types of shoes can be tested when the surface is wet. When wearing flip flops the wet surfaces seem to be a problem, this could provide insight on health and safety in TAS. <br \/>\nIn relation to your second experiment, I found the information on the effects on fluorescent lights very interesting as from time to time students do experiences some of these side effects during class (fatigue, irritability, headaches, etc.) I think that you did a good job in measuring the light sources from a meter away from the source (or window) as this allows you to compare the results better.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"43115398","dateCreated":"1316959589","smartDate":"Sep 25, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"vickietyc","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/vickietyc","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/tasibgroup4.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/43115398"},"dateDigested":1532126581,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"comment","description":"Overall the lab report was presented in a clear and concise manner. Both labs were conducted precisely, I particularly liked how you guys clearly stated the purpose and background of your experiment as well as the implications. However I cannot help but wonder, what are the real life implications of the experiment testing for the friction of different shoes on varying surfaces in TAS. Given your results, would you recommend any particular surface to the administration for the construction of the new building? Also, the experiment was based on the measurement of the friction on a particular surface. This is assuming that the same surface, will result in the same level of friction throughout when in fact there could be variation in surfaces. For example some parts of the track could be more worn out. In the future to control this possible error, the shoe can be pull along several areas of the same surface.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]}],"more":true},"comments":[]},"http":{"code":200,"status":"OK"},"redirectUrl":null,"javascript":null,"notices":{"warning":[],"error":[],"info":[],"success":[]}}
