The way my group was brainstorming is that we were trying to come up with a project that would relate to sustainability the most. At first, it was difficult. We would look online for different ideas and see what was out there at the time for projects about solar power, hydroelectric power and anything else we could find. We want to have one cool project to present to the class. Alas, we came up with the idea of using light bulbs as a heat source and see which wattage came up with the most heat. We found an example of the project online and went off of that as our base. We had to come up with other ways of doing the experiment so that we could get positive results so we just changed where the light bulbs would be hitting the thermometer and how far away it was. After that, it was smooth sailing, with the help of Professor Shatz of course.
