AP RESEARCH PROJECT:
Can vertical farming be successfully utilized to create an enhanced workspace, which would lower academic induced anxiety levels for high school kids (grades 10-12) in BC.
Goal: To be able to present to the board why having a vertical farm inside a room in our new campus would benefit students in terms of studying productively.
How To Achieve This:
- Create a prototype with the technological aspects of the vertical farm (ie prove it would work)
- Interview Students at our school and ask them specific questions that could then be applied to vertical farming afterwards and why it could help :

METHOD/APPROACH
-
Content Analysis of the school and of the classrooms with little to no windows --> could also look at areas with windows and use this information to prove that the light will help with students being anxious because light helps them in these areas

ACTION PLAN:
Prepare Survey For Experiment: Have one survey for directly after work time in area with plants. Have one survey for directly after work time in area without plants
Experiment: Have students work for 1 hour in a space where plants are present. Have these students work for 1 hour in a space where plants are not present. The room should be the same for both times. Should I do a content analysis of areas that students mostly end up doing tests/studying in?
- Ask Mr.Pretty if I can use his plants
-
- Recruit students to be my test subjects via email
-
-
-
- Plan for surveys (1 for each trial)
Survey Students: Ask them about their experiences with anxiety within a school setting. Ask them where they feel calm. Ask them what colours they find calming out of these colours. Ask them about different lightings... (ie. did this kind of light help you feel more calm?). Did you feel more alert?
- Plan survey and run it by at least 3 peers and Mr.Acevedo or Ms.Wittig
- Send survey out to students
Content Analysis of School: Look for greenery in school settings. Look for LED light in school settings. (Be careful not to mix up light and greenery throughout the project)
- Ask if I can use the biology or chem lab after school at some point (permission)
