Why not finish up your model Funitel and submit that? That'd be a perfect demonstration of what you're trying to explain! All of my teachers were always happy whenever I brought in something physical to demonstrate something in physics or design, they like that kind of stuff. :)

(If you want help understanding something, I'd be happy to help, but I'm not going to do your work for you. If you learn it for yourself, you'll understand it and be able to apply it to other areas in life!)

I'd say something about how the stuff in the terminals work, like how the accel/decel works, maybe a detach grip. I don't know exactly what you are looking for. Maybe something about the sheave trains? (compression, depression, support)

Isn't it odd that "politics" is made up of the word "poli" meaning many, and "tics" meaning blood-sucking creatures?

I'd be interested in reading what you came up with! What kind of class was it for?
