FIRST you will choose a type of wave (Sound, Seismic, Water, Light)
THEN you will do BACKGROUND research of the wave, their motion, and characteristics using the Internet Resources listed below and your class readings.
Next you will create a PowerPoint Presentation on your wave type including all characteristics and important information about the wave.
FINALLY you will present the Power Point to the class.
Your PPT Presentation MUST include ALL of the following:
*Title Slide (your name and the title of the project)
*Report Slides (the main body of information and pictures)
*Bibliography Slide (crediting where you found your information including where you found your graphics)
Include graphics, pictures, and animations on your slides where appropriate to improve your explanations to show your understanding of the concepts.
PROJECT RUBRIC
ORGANIZATION AWESOME (3): well organized, logical format, transitions from idea to idea were excellent enhancing the project, ADMIRABLE (2): thoughtfully organized, easy to follow most of the time, transitions easy to follow but at times ideas are not clear ACCEPTABLE(1): Somewhat organized, somewhat incoherent, transitions not always smooth and at times very distracting UNACCEPTABLE (0): choppy and confusing, difficult to follow, transitions were abrupt and distracting
PROJECT CONTENTS
AWESOME(3): excellent job of research, utilized information effectively, contains ALL required components of the report ADMIRABLE(2): good job of research, utilized information in a fairly efficient manner, contains ALL required components of the report ACCEPTABLE(1): acceptable job of research, only a limited amount of information, contains ALL required components of the report UNNACCEPTABLE(0): unacceptable job of research, little or no facts gathered, does not contain all required components of the report
PROJECT PRESENTATIONS
AWESOME(3): Highly Original, highly unique, highly organized approach ADMIRABLE(2): clever, well done, interesting ACCEPTABLE(1): few original touches, slightly interesting UNACCEPTABLE(0):too predictable, too bland, uninteresting
CONCEPT UNDERSTANDING
AWESOME(3): demonstrates in-depth and complete understanding of waves and their characteristics and applications ADMIRABLE(2): demonstrates good understanding of waves and their characteristics ACCEPTABLE(1): demonstrates fair understanding of waves and their characteristics UNACCEPTABLE(0): demonstrate little understanding of waves and their characteristics
CLASSROOM WORK
AWESOME (3): excellent use of time in the classroom; excellent focus on tas ADMIRABLE (2): very good use of time in the classroom; very good focus on task ACCEPTABLE (1): good use of time in class; focused on task most of the time UNACCEPTABLE(0): did not utilize time well; off task many times
Create an outline of the important information about your waves.
Now break up the information into Power Point slides.
Create the Power Point from your research: 1. Tell what kind of wave it is. 2. Describe ALL of its characteristics, how it moves, how energy is transferred. 3. Use diagrams, pictures, graphics to explain all information about YOUR WAVE. 4. Explain its uses, applications, examples, problems, etc. of your type of wave. 5. Write a BIBLIOGRAPHY to give credit all the sources of your project's information and graphics:Book Title, AuthorName of Website, website address(URL)
Phase 3 - Reaching Consensus *Be sure to include your BIBLIOGRAPHY slide which credits the individual wave websites, graphics websites, etc. and books you used for your project: Book Title, Author Name of Website, website address(URL)
