» - » You must have a project design form signed by your science teacher before you begin your project. The project design form and this form must be returned with your project. Failure to return both forms will result in a penalty of 5%. If you begin your project before obtaining your science teacher's signature on the project design form, your project may be disqualified. » - » Check the TARGET GRADE (most likely your maximum grade) at the top of the page. » - » You may not use AC electricity to power your project. Only DC electricity of less than 5 amperes & 15 volts is permitted. » - » You may not copy another student's design for your project (except for bridges & towers). Yours must be significantly different. » - » You may not do the same project twice without permission from your science teacher. » - » In order to earn “bonus points” and extra credit, your project must be handed in by the due date, and must earn at least 96 %. » - » Projects handed in more than 4 days late will not be presented or tested in class. » - » You must complete a project design form and get it signed by your teacher before you begin your project. |
PROJECT GUIDELINES
1. Read the
INDEPENDENT
PROJECT GENERAL GUIDELINES first.
2. Complete a project
design form and get it signed by your science teacher.
3. Make a list of
at least 10 or more questions and answers (physical science only) that
will be used with your quiz board.
4. Make a neat circuit
diagram of your quiz board.
5. Build your quiz
board using rigid material (cardboard, plywood, paneling, etc.).
NOTE 1:You may
not use a prefabricated circuit board or a "kit". You may not use
more than 18 volts. You may not use A.C. electricity.
NOTE 2:
When
correct choices are made, the board must indicate that the choice is correct
by means of a light that comes on or a sound that is produced.
