We will be presenting our projects today (Friday, 9/13). The actual presentations will be rather informal and there is no specific structure that I am looking for this. The only requirement is that you must have some visual aid (one of your member's portfolios in all likelihood), and if possible you can show off your project.
The significant grade aspect is in your actual portfolio which every one of you must have and they will be individually graded accordingly!
FYI, grades for the first report card are due Monday after school. I expect to have the grades/feedback to you on Monday but these grades will not be put into the first six weeks so as to ensure there are significant 12th hour drops in your gradebook without having the chance to make corrections on your portfolios.

Coming to a classroom near you this next Thursday, 9/12, we will be having our first major grade relevant to your project work: a portfolio check as well as everyone getting to present their work!
Here is the rubric for this summative (~test) grade: rubric_learningplan1.pdf A key thing to note on this is that it very similarly aligns to a 5 step Engineering Design Process (Ask, Imagine, Plan, Create, Improve). I would recommend creating a page on your portfolio dedicated to your current project and then to outline this page according to the Engineering Design process and populate it with relevant pictures, figures, Gantt charts and text. Plan on being completed with this portfolio by Thursday and then we will present our projects on Thursday in class. You do not need any additional PowerPoint or visual for your presentation, just your portfolio. I can show you a couple examples of past portfolio pages that are well done, they just won't be linked on this site. As discussed in class on Wednesday, I will be out on Thursday. I will be at a mini-conference at Wheeler, so I will be in the building and accessible if need be, but I should not be in the classroom.
Your project work should continue on just fine without me, however. The only catch is that the wood-working room will remain locked along with the tools within it. If it is fine with the substitute the drill/driver are fair game as well as the hand tools. |
