Independent Project/
Community Service Project
It is important for students to explore areas of
interest, develop a more thorough knowledge base through independent
investigations and be encouraged and facilitated in passion learning through in
depth studies; in order to demonstrate growth as independent, self directed
learners.
Therefore, the requirements for the study are as follows:
- Complete the Project Proposal and participate in a meeting with the gifted facilitator to receive approval before moving forward and discuss the final product that will be presented.
- Begin project completion, following the stated timeline and keep a journal/ log of hours that will provide evidence of time, resources and effort in completing the proposed project.
- Schedule a meeting(s) with the
Gifted Facilitator at checkpoint dates to chart progress of project
completion.(Your responsibility)
- Complete project product and additional requirements as stated in your proposal following your timeline. If changes occur, contact Mrs. Peters IMMEDIATELY.
- Complete project reflection following the outline requirements.
- Compile a project binder for the final presentation. All supportive information, including notes, evidence of research and any other materials or information gathered for the study should be presented in the binder. A title page, section dividers and a table of contents should be used to organize the information. Creativity and thoughtfulness in the development of this study should be evident. All written materials should be typed and word- processed.
- Schedule a final presentation with the gifted facilitator and additional evaluators (as stated in your proposal). During this presentation, your final product as well as your project binder will need to be presented. The evaluators will ask question(s) regarding your project that you will need to be prepared to answer.
