Third Quarter extra
Credit!
|
|
This
project is worth at least 10 points on an exam. Extra points are awarded for creativity
|
First Quarter: I
want you to create a poster or powerpoint on how something
works. See the Links page for a good place to
start.
Second Quarter:
For
the Third Quarter I want you to research a physicist,
but it has to be someone you connect with. It should
take you longer to find the person than to write the
report. You will have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your
prince or princess. Describe why you picked the person,
and why you connected with them. You will then tell me a
little about them. What they did, where they are from,
blah blah blah. It can be as short or as long as
you like. You can present this as a Poster, Paper,
Presentation, and almost any other appropriate means. I
would discourage you from Tattoo art depicting your chosen
person as this might be a bit too permanent a
connection. No really no
tattoos
. We are going for creative not crazy.

For example mine could be Jack
Marburger. He was my neighbor growing up. He was
an Optical physicist who is now the Presidents Science advisor
. . .
You
don't need a personal connection. You can connect with
someone based on anything, but remember your connection
is the most important part. Oh and if you think that you
can connect with Einstein based on sailing your wrong.
He was a horrible sailor.
Fourth
Quarter:
I want a scale model of
something.
