Process Paper
I decided to choose Einstein for my Civics Project because I had a deep interest for quantam mechanics, physics, and basically how life works in general. Albert Einstein was a leading physicist during his time, and most of his theories proved true under modern scruitiny. By learning more about the accomplishments that Einstein has created, I have learned more about how the world really works. By learning more about the theories of special and general relativity, and learning how light is actually packets of discrete quanta, or photons, I have learned to think outside of normal theology and explore the intricate worlds of quantam mechanics.
I first became interested in researching Einstein after watching numerous minutephisics and Vsauce videos. Minutephysics especially has helped me discover the world of quantam mechanics and the various theories and laws associated with it. By learning more about Einstein, I was able to learn more about physics as a whole through. Physics itself may seem complicating, but with an open mind and a craving to learn, it becomes easy to absorb the various thoughts, ideas, logic, and principles that physics imply. It is amazing to imagine that time can change relative to one's speed, and how multiple dimensions can possibly exist explained in string theory. One that struck me most was how things can be at various places at once, called superposition, until a observer views the item, causing nature to collaspe the superposition. It is intriguing to image that an electron can behave differently if it is being observed than if it wasn't being observed.
Research wasn't a chore, but more of a passion for me. Learning the quirky and interesting things of Einstein's life has engaged me deeper into this civics project. I loved learning of how Einstein was seen as a big-headed retard by his parents, and how his professors loathed him. It was also amusing to learn that Einstein developed most of his revolutionary papers during his leisure working as a patent clerk. Einstein's unique life has made it easy for me to engage deeper into the project, and has helped me spread roots into the intricate world that is physics.
By learning more about the inventions and legacy of Einstein, I gained a deeper understanding of light, space, time, and what e=mc2 really meant. It was also a fun experience in trying to master weebly web creation (which was a pain in the arse!). To sum, learning about Albert Einstein has enriched my understanding of the actual world around me, and has given me strong roots into the world of physics, cosmology, mathematics, theology, politics, religion, and the universe as a whole.
