Independent Component 1 is an opportunity for you to add a dimension of creativity and/or an additional outlet for research. The goal of the component is for you to explore your topic in depth more with this component. On February 6, 2015 you will be turning in the following to your blog to prove completion of this component:
-Section documenting hours for Independent Component 1 in Senior Project Hours link (this should be documented regularly and can be spot checked throughout the year.)
-Evidence of the 30 hours of work (e.g. transcript, essays, tests, art work, photographs) as digital artifacts.
-Blog reflecting on work completed
To get your idea approved now, please answer the following questions:
1.)Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.
-I plan to take a human anatomy class or a nutrition class to complete my 30 hours for the Independent Component.
2.)Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.
-I will have my teacher sign a paper that lists my hours as evidence.
3.)Explain how what you will be doing will help you explore your topic more in depth.
-By taking a human anatomy class I will better understand what part of the body a certain exercise is working out.
4.)Update your Senior Project Hours log.
To be approved, your proposal should be supported with details and examples for the senior team to understand what you plan to do.
Next Steps: Once we review your blog post, your house teacher will discuss with you the approval of your plan either face-to-face or as a comment on this post. If your idea is approved, please start working on it. If it is not approved, your house teacher will explain why. It is your job to follow up with your teacher.
Do you have a class in mind? Is there one available? The idea is a good one, but I don't want you to come to me and say I couldn't find one. This should have been something you already researched.
