» - » 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. |
| OBJECTIVE -
The
objective of this exercise will be to make a 10 minute video tape presentation
that teaches a physical science lesson.
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. Your video must be based on facts and concepts covered by our textbook. 4. Your video may be designed for: -- a narrow topic (e. g. periodic chart of the elements, density); -- a unit of our textbook (see the table of contents); -- general physical science knowledge covering several units. 5. You may not use video clips from another video. 6. Write a rough draft of the “script” for your video. 7. Bring the script to your science teacher for advice and approval. 8. You must make your video on VHS tape or provide an adapter so the tape can be shown in class. 9. Submit the video to your science teacher for review. 10. Show your video to a class and answer questions from the students. 11. You must dress and act in accordance with normal school guidelines when you are making your video. 12. For full credit, you must give a correct explanation of the concepts presented in your video. |
