Olivia commented on the post, Climate Change
Dr. Williamson knows about climate change. There is no need to explain what it is and it’s repercussions to him. If I were him, I would be wondering who exactly is part of your team and how you guys are actively working to reduce the severity of climate change. Sure, you may be making posters and presenting to middle schoolers, but what are you…Read More

Olivia commented on the post, Are You an Ally to the LGBTQ Community?
How can middle schoolers make members of the LGBTQ+ community feel welcome through their every day actions? In what ways can I show that I am supportive of all genders and sexualities without being part of a specific organization. I want to help make people feel comfortable. It almost feels like the things proposed in this piece are targeted…Read More

Olivia commented on the post, Gender Dysphoria and Public Restrooms
Thank you for sharing your personal story in addition to supporting it with legal events. I didn’t realize that people made such a big deal out of trans people using one bathroom or another. While you say that unisex and gender neutral bathrooms can help resolve the problem, what happens when it is not possible for a building to accommodate for a…Read More

Olivia commented on the post, Graffiti of My Life
You seem like a very interesting person. I would love to learn more about you and have some more examples of what type of graffiti you enjoy and maybe some that you do not (if any). I would also like to know how you would react to someone who dislikes graffiti because they believe it is damaging or ugly. Can’t wait to hear more from you in the future.

Olivia commented on the post, What we have learned from gravitational waves
I had no idea that these new advancements were being made. I would love more specifics on what we are learning and how it impacts the scientific community. How are gravitational waves detected and what are the causes? I hope to see more research from you in the future.

Olivia commented on the post, Charter Schools
I didn’t know that charter schools were public schools. I would love more information on why charter schools do not receive as much funding. I am also curious about why not all schools would be structured like charter schools if the level of education is so much better. Personally, I go to a private school which my parents pay for. My school does…Read More

Olivia, I found your post about team cohesion and leadership to be very interesting. I enjoyed the section of the study that discussed how team cohesion and strong team leadership are very interconnected and that strong leadership must be multidimensional. I also enjoyed learning about how different sports require different levels of team cohesion. This is something I never would have considered before. Here is an article that gives another in depth look at team cohesion and leadership. https://www.sportplan.net/drills/blog/teamCohesion-14-01-2014.jsp
I hope to read more from you soon!

I love the topic of ceramics and you seem very passionate about it. I know that people do ceramics because it is art and can be calming, but I never considered that having something tangible to work with could be a form of meditation or therapy. I would love to hear about different kinds of pottery from you in the future such as what different…Read More

Olivia commented on the post, Designer Clothes
I never considered the fact that designer clothes are more comfortable. I would always just assume people wore designer clothes to look more professional or put together for other people. I love that you explained that you wear designer clothes because it makes you feel good. It’s also interesting to me that dressing nicely is so important to you…Read More

Hi Olivia! This is a very interesting topic and one that I think a lot of people can relate to. In any activity, it is important for all members to work together for a common outcome. Without cohesion, there is simply no chance of success. I especially liked how you discussed tactics that leaders can use in order to promote unity and even a sense of community. The thing that could really make your paper stronger is some data or real world examples. Maybe discuss a time that a team didn’t work well together and how that reflected in their playing. I found this article on some collaboration statistics to get you started. Overall, great job! https://blog.bit.ai/collaboration-statistics/

Olivia commented on the post, Dangers of Hockey
Hockey is known for hard hitting and injuries. It makes sense that many athletes get concussions. Do you know how many hockey players have CTE? Is CTE more common in one age group than the others? I would like to hear more about this from you in the future.

Olivia commented on the post, What does "America" mean?
I agree with the fact that a location defines people to some extent, but I believe that people also define the places they live. When you say that America is diverse, what do you mean? Are you talking about the landmass and climate? I would like to hear more from you explaining what you mean more specifically!

Olivia commented on the post, Comfort Zones
Emma,
I agree that it is important to step out of your comfort zone, but I think there is a limit. If you have a healthy, active lifestyle, would you decide to eat nothing but cake for a week and stay in bed just because it is something different? I believe that if a situation presents itself and is not obviously dangerous or detrimental, it is…Read More -

Wilson,
I am not super familiar with cars, but this is a beautiful one. Do you know how long these Italian materials are expected to last? I would like to see more information on the maintenance on the car because if it begins to fall apart after 10 years or 10,000 miles it will lose some value even though it is an amazing car. Do you think these…Read More -

Dear Jesus,
It is interesting to hear how much better our air is based on statistics that you mentioned. Do you think that the management of burning is sufficient or do you think we should start looking more seriously at alternative methods? I would love to hear more of your ideas on this question. -

Olivia, I like how you used both sides of the argument to address the controversy over milk. However, the cons of drinking milk stood out more to me, because it surprised me how many risks there are when it comes to the production of milk which people tend to usually avoid talking about. I will definitely think more consciously next time I drink milk, and decide whether the benefits are greater than the costs or vice versa.

Olivia, I really enjoyed this post and I think you have a very interesting topic. This study did a good job at looking at what other studies did and then improving. I especially liked when you talked about how “high levels of positive feedback, training, and instruction lead to higher levels of task and social cohesion.” Here is an article you might find interesting: https://www.nytimes.com/guides/business/manage-a-successful-team. I look forward to learning more about your project.
