The next big project for the 9th grade AVID class is the college research project. They were given the assignment sheet today with all of the directions for the assignment. This can also be found on Mrs. Neubert's website, called "College Research Project."
Students, in groups of three, will pick a college to research from using the website http://www.utexas.edu/world/univ/state/. Each student will write his/her own essay, and each group will make a power point presentation about the college. Then that group will present the power point to the class, with each student having a speaking part.
Mrs. Neubert recommends that at least one person in each group has a flash drive or a thumb drive to store the power point presentation and bring it to class to present.
Important due dates with this assignment are:
College due 3-5-09
Introduction due 3-9-09
Rough Draft due 3-17-09
Final Draft due 3-25-09
Power Point due 3-25-09
Presentation dates will be determined later.
Students have also been given the opportunity to earn extra credit by turning in the final draft of the essay before 3-25-09. This can be done by emailing the final draft to Mrs. Neubert (neubert_l@auhsd.us), or printing out the typed essay and turning it in early.
