The start to this school year was unlike any other. Being completely online is quite a different dynamic and while it has its benefits, it also brings challenges. Being at home all day, having separation from school life and home life and managing that time has so far been the biggest challenge for me. Scheduling and planning is something that brings a lot of peace to me actually, so making a schedule and following it will be key moving forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thus far, I have barely scratched the surface of everything I need to know, however, I do feel that I am on the right track with finding relevant articles and research. Especially after making a list of keywords in class…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
contagion \u2022 virus \u2022 bacteria \u2022 space \u2022 isolation \u2022 protection \u2022 healthy bacteria \u2022 immune system \u2022 mental health \u2022 deterioration \u2022 body systems \u2022 biological process \u2022 health \u2022 systems \u2022 small spaces \u2022 nutrition \u2022 spacecrafts \u2022 submarines \u2022 closed loop \u2022 prevention \u2022 human contact \u2022 spread of disease \u2022 human health \u2022 iss \u2022 naval \u2022 prisons\/institutions \u2022 vaccum \u2022 quarantine \u2022 “in vacuum” \u2022 microgravity \u2022 ventilation \u2022 air circulation \u2022 filtration <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ones that I have currently looked into are; contagion, closed environment, ventilation, air circulation, spacecraft, quarantine, space, virus, ISS. I will continue to use these and the rest of the keywords as keep looking for articles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some notable things that I’ve come across in research so far are ventilation in buildings and hospitals to avoid contamination of healthy patients, and NASA’s Health Stabilization Program to prevent the spread and transmission of viruses and diseases. This reminded me I have a contact in the HVAC industry who might bring an interesting perspective should I interview him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Content that was suggested I check out included the Bill Nye: Science Rules <\/em>podcast, and the films Contagion <\/em>and Mars. <\/em>This reminded me of one of my favourite shows, Lost in Space. <\/em>In the second season the air of the planet they are on is toxic and deadly, so the family has to ensure their habitat is completely closed off. Watching Contagion <\/em>and Lost in Space<\/em> another time may be beneficial especially because I now will be coming at it from a different lens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n ~ <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The start to this school year was unlike any other.
