Innovative+Project

I have chosen my Stream project as my Innovative Project, I currently use this project but have modified it with some of the tools I found from this class. I take my Field Biology students out to Lillibridge creek once a week for the spring semester and have them complete various chemical and physical tests on the stream. The students then create a research paper on the stream in place of a Final Exam.

Students will utilize Microsoft Excell to record and graph observations. Students will use a blog on my Diigo account to share their observations with their group. Students will use Search Engines to research and analyze various chemical parameters of the stream. Students will use EasyBib to create a bibliography as they work. Students will create a research paper from their research and observations. Students will use wikispaces to store and accumulate research findings and rough drafts.
