Research Day 2: Leonardo da Vinci
Good morning, Axelle!
First, a huge "Investor Shout-out" for your presentation on Stephen Hawking. Your insights into how he leveled up his curiosity despite his physical motoric adversity were impressive. To wrap up the Hawking File, we have one "Bonus Research" request for tonight:
-
The Science Check: Briefly explain what ALS stands for and what it actually is. We want to hear it in your own words!
Since we started this journey yesterday, we are officially "logging" your progress.
-
Status: The "Flipping" process has begun.
-
Goal: To turn screen-time habits into world-class research skills.
💡 Today’s Research Task: The Master of Observation
Your mission today is to look into Leonardo da Vinci.
The Big Question: "How did Leonardo da Vinci use his notebooks to 'flip' a simple observation (like a bird flying) into a world-changing invention (like a flying machine)?"
Your Research Protocol:
1.
The Life Story: What was his biggest adversity?
2.
The Solution: What was his greatest contribution to the world?
3.
The "Word-Cloud": Find 1 or 2 quotes from him that actually make sense to you.
4.
The Founder’s Opinion: What do you honestly think about this guy? Was he a genius or just really focused?
Since you have your handwritten notes, we want you to start a Digital Archive. After your presentation tonight, we’ll help you snap a photo of your notes or type a "Quick Summary" into a special folder. This is your "Academic Currency", a proof of how much your value is increasing every day!
We are so proud to be the primary investors in the amazing person you are becoming.
A Little Tip: Axelle, try asking your Milo the AI this (you can copy and paste it)
'Explain Leonardo da Vinci's inventions to me like I'm a 10-year-old Roblox developer.'
Have fuuuuun!!!
Onward and Upward,
Mama & Papa
