Innovationeer Persona Monologues

A "persona" is like a mask or attitude that you adopt for different situations.

Actors and actresses adopt persona's so they can realistically portray the character they play in a movie or on stage. Persona's are a natural part of everyday life as well!

People may create different persona's for different situations, like when you are with your parents, siblings, friends, teachers, employers etc.

The Persona Monologue is a 5 minute presentation that reveals to the other Innovationeers in your course the person you have chosen to become.

You will choose this person in the first days of the course and build your persona of the person with a series of activities in and out of class.

You will post your observations of each Persona Monologue activity on this blog.

Feel free to embellish your blog post with pictures and anything else that will make your contribution memorable, unique and fun to read!

Enjoy your time creating and presenting your Persona Monologue.

Best Regards,

The ICAL Team

  12. Do you always think that older people have to be the ones to set a good influence? Could a younger person influence an older person? Why or why not?

  21. Thomas Alva Edison was born February 11, 1847 ,he was an American inventor, scientist, and businessman who developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world,the motion picture camera, and a long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. Dubbed The Wizard of Menlo Park by a newspaper reporter, he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large teamwork to the process of invention, and therefore is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory.

  22. During the mid 1500's, Italian inventor Leonardo Da Vinci made drawings of an ornithopter flying machine that some experts say inspired the modern day helicopter. In 1784, French inventor, Launoy and Bienvenue created a toy with a rotary-wing that could lift and fly and proved the principle of helicopter flight.

    Origins of the Name
    In 1863, the French writer Ponton D'Amecourt was the first person to coin the term "helicopter" from the two words "helico" for spiral and "pter" for wings.
    The very first piloted helicopter was invented by Paul Cornu in 1907, however, this design was not successful. French inventor, Etienne Oehmichen built and flew a helicopter one kilometer in 1924. Another early helicopter that flew for a decent distance was the German Focke-Wulf Fw 61, invented by an unknown inventor.


    Igor Sikorsky
    Igor Sikorsky is considered to be the "father" of helicopters not because he invented the first. He is called that because he invented the first successful helicopter, upon which further designs were based.
    One of aviation's greatest designers, Russian born Igor Sikorsky began work on helicopters as early as 1910. By 1940, Igor Sikorsky's successful VS-300 had become the model for all modern single-rotor helicopters. He also designed and built the first military helicopter, XR-4, which he delivered to Colonel Franklin Gregory of the U.S. Army.

    Igor Sikorsky's helicopters had the control to fly safely forwards and backwards, up and down, and sideways. In 1958, Igor Sikorsky's rotorcraft company made the world's first helicopter that had a boat hull and could land and takeoff from water. It could also float on the water.


    Stanley Hiller
    In 1944, American inventor Stanley Hiller, Jr. made the first helicopter with all metal rotorblades that were very stiff. They allowed helicopter to fly at speeds much faster than before. In 1949, Stanley Hiller piloted the first helicopter flight across the United States, flying a helicopter that he invented called the Hiller 360.
    In 1946, Arthur Young of the Bell Aircraft company, designed the Bell Model 47 helicopter, the first helicopter to have a full bubble canopy.

  23. Early lifeHe was born in Grunbach and as a young man became an apprentice machinist at a foundry. Heinkel studied at the Technical Academy in Stuttgart,[1] where he initially became interested in aviation through a fascination with zeppelins, and in 1909 attended an international airshow in Frankfurt am Main. He determined flight was the future of transportation, and the following year, he built his first aircraft, working from a set of plans by Henri Farman. Heinkel crashed the plane in 1911 and suffered severe injuries.[2]

    [edit] Albatros FlugzeugwerkeSoon afterwards, he gained employment at Luft-Verkehrs Gesellschaft (LVG), who were building Farman aircraft. From there, he went to Albatros, where Heinkel designed the Albatros B-II, a reconnaissance aircraft used during the early stages of the First World War. His planes were used by the Austro-Hungarian army and German navy during the war.[1] After leaving the Albatros, Heinkel designed several land- and seaplanes for the Hansa-Brandenburg company starting in 1914.

    [edit] Heinkel-FlugzeugwerkeIn 1921, Heinkel was appointed head designer of the recently re-established Caspar-Werke, but soon left after a dispute over ownership of a design. In 1922 he established the Heinkel-Flugzeugwerke company at Warnemünde. Due to the restrictions placed on German aircraft manufacturing by the Treaty of Versailles, Heinkel looked overseas for contracts, with some seaplane designs being licence-built in Sweden and working on catapult-launched seaplanes for the Imperial Japanese Navy. He installed a similar catapult on the ocean liner Bremen for launching mail planes.

    [edit] Versailles Treaty violationsBetween 1921-1924, the Japanese government placed several orders with Heinkel's company, and helped him skirt the Versailles Treaty, which banned the construction of military aircraft in Germany, by informing the company of facility inspections by allied commissions in advance.[3] Japan was part of the inspection commission.[4] Heinkel hid his aircraft in dunes behind his plant and were never discovered during inspections.[4] Heinkel noted in his memoirs that his company's relationship with Japan in the 1920s led to decades of cooperation.[3]

    [edit] 1933-1945After Adolf Hitler came to power, designs by Heinkel's firm formed a vital part of the Luftwaffe's growing strength in the years leading up to the Second World War. This included the Heinkel He 59, the Heinkel He 115 and the Heinkel He 111. He was designated a Wehrwirtschaftführer by the German government for his commitment to rearmament.

    Heinkel was passionate about high-speed flight, and was keen on exploring alternative forms of aircraft propulsion. He donated aircraft to Wernher von Braun who was investigating rocket propulsion for aircraft, as well as sponsoring the research of Hans von Ohain into turbojet engines, leading to the flight of the Heinkel He 178, the first aircraft to fly solely under turbojet power by Erich Warsitz on August 27, 1939.

    Heinkel had been a critic of Hitler's regime concerning being forced to fire Jewish designers and staff in 1933, however, he was a member of the Nazi party,[4] awarded the German National Prize for Art and Science in 1938, one of the rarest honors of the German government,[5] and he used forced Jewish labor starting in 1941, in which his company was considered a "model for slave labor."[6]

    In 1942 the government "nationalised" the Heinkel works. In practice, this meant that Heinkel was detained until he sold his controlling interest in his factories to Hermann Göring. Heinkel moved to Vienna and started a new design bureau there, working on the Heinkel He 274 design until the war ended.

    At the end of the war Heinkel was arrested by the Allies but evidence of anti-Hitler activities and his treatment by the regime led to his acquittal.
