It was a pleasure doing this research. Time is one of the most important variables in this universe. Keeping track of time accurately has been therefore crucial to people's day to day lives. The sun is the source that provides life on this planet. Due to its property of being steady and consistent (relatively speaking), the sun is what we can count on to understand time. Hence, we looked into the history of time telling among several geographical locations. The sundial from different places may look different and function differently. That is why it was fascinating to see different perspectives. We are absolutely impressed by the genius of our ancestors. And making a sundial can be used as an activity in a high school classroom! We did run into some technical issues when putting together the art piece. Since we are doing this virtually, it is really hard to exchange and edit drawings. It would be much easier if we can draw on actual paper or a poster. However, this is a good learning experience for all of us because we will likely get benefit from this in the future.
