Girls In Physics - ALL CLASSES


My name is Valerie Chiykowski, and I’m emailing from the Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) at the University of Toronto. Every two months we give fifty female high school students from Ontario the opportunity to learn, in a hands-on way, about the world of science and technology-based entrepreneurship. Accepted students are invited to attend one of the CDL’s Session days where they are matched with a CDL Fellow or Associate (their mentor) whom they will shadow for the day. Mentors include Col. Chris Hadfield (astronaut), Ted Livingston (Founder & CEO of Kik Messenger), Karin Klein (Founder, Bloomberg Beta) and others.
We are currently seeking student applicants for  October 22 or 23, 2019.
Since the launch of the program last year, we have had over 300 students attend this program across the nation. There is no cost to participate in this program and applications are open to any student registered in a secondary school. Students are responsible for arranging their own transportation to and from the event location.
If you or a student you know would like to see what past participants have to say about the program, please read one of these blog posts:
●      CDL: How to Make your Idea Stand Out by Zaynah who spent a day shadowing Tony Lacavera, the founder of Wind Mobile (now Freedom Mobile)
●      Session 1: My Amazing Mentorship Experience At CDL & What I Learned From Top Tech Entrepreneurs by Riya who spent a day shadowing Dan Debow, founder of Rypple, Workbrain, and Helpful.ai
●      The real key to creating a high-impact business - CDL Reflection by Ananya who shadowed Ken Nickerson, CEO of iBinary and Board Member at OMERS Ventures
For more information about the CDL, Sean Silcoff of the Globe and Mail wrote a detailed cover story about the program and its recent expansion titled Billion Dollar Breakout in March 2017.
Ideal candidates are comfortable speaking in public (students are often asked to introduce themselves to a room of entrepreneurs, scientists, and investors), have an interest in science and technology, and are motivated to learn about entrepreneurship.
Selected students will spend a full day following their mentor to a variety of short meetings with high potential new startups on the University of Toronto St. George Campus at the Rotman School of Management (105 St. George Street, Toronto). Students will observe and occasionally participate in objectives-setting meetings where their CDL mentors, the Fellows and Associates, provide advice to new, high potential startups.
The deadline to apply for the next selection round is October 1, 2019 at 11:59 PM EST, but applicants will be assessed and admitted on a first-come first-serve basis. Please share this opportunity with other educators or directly with students that you believe would benefit from the program.
If you have any questions feel free to send me an email.
Thank you,
Val

Lab Booklets and Bridge Build Challenge - SPH3U/4C

Hello all,

Our first real task is to assemble our lab booklets then complete the bridge building challenge.  Here are instructions and constraints.

  1.  (FOR HOMEWORK) Create a cover page for your lab booklets and include; 
    1. name, course code + Physics Booklet, and draw an image(s) about something that interests you in the realm of physics.  
    2. take approx. 30 lined sheets and a back cover and staple your lab booklet together. 
  2. Bridge Build Challenge:
    1. at your table groups, brainstorm, design and build a bridge with only one box with cover (no other materials allowed). The bridge must comply with the following requirements:
      1. span two desks at a distance of 35 cm from each other
      2. be capable of attaching a force sensor to the middle underside of the span 
      3. not be connected or supported to any surface other than the top surfaces of the desks
      4. competition winner will be the bridge that supports the highest load in newtons divided by the mass of the bridge in kg. (ie an advantage to having a strong/light bridge)
  3. complete a lab book entry with the following: (will be marked)
    1. date and entry name 
    2. design sketches including dimensions
    3. recorded data (mass and load)
    4. calculation for competition (mass/load) ** do not forget about units!!!

Due Friday

 Have fun!!
