» - » 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. Obtain a sound chart and training tape from your science teacher. NOTE: Computer programs that help you learn Morse code are available from your teacher. 3. Learn the sounds for the first 13 letters presented on the tape. (E,T,A,I,M,N,S,O,D,R,C,U and K) NOTE:Phase II covers the rest of the letters, Phase III covers numbers and punctuation. 4. Take a sound test over the 13 letters and score a minimum of 50%. NOTE: Each letter will be sent (sounded on the code oscillator or tape) three times. 5. Complete a project design form and get it signed by your science teacher. 6. You will not be allowed to use the sound chart or notes on the test. 7. See the Grading Criteria for ways you can earn an A+.* |
