Project Log Entry Due Friday

The first of your six project log entries is due Friday. What have you done to further your project this week? Look at your physical project task analysis: have you accomplished any of the items you listed on your timeline? If not, why not? Do not put off for tomorrow what you can do today. It's a cliche because it's true.

Senior Presentation Guidelines*

This information is also on the Senior Project Survival Guide on the school's website.

The purpose of the Senior Presentation is to tell the story of the Senior Project by synthesizing what was learned from the product creation with the information from the paper. It is your chance to describe what you learned to a group of interested adults and peers.

Guidelines:

• The student should explain the process of creating the product and writing the paper. There should be an introduction, body and conclusion.

• The presentation must include visual or auditory aids such as PowerPoint or iGoogle.

• The presentation must be 7 to 10 minutes in length including a question and answer period.

• The presentation should be rehearsed in front of an audience at least three times. You may use note cards or PowerPoint presentation as prompts.

• This is a formal presentation. Students should dress in business attire.
