a Cell ProjectProject- The goal for the studnet is to create an analogy that relates to a eukaryote cell. The final product is a story about something that has similarities to a cell's structure. There are 8 main parts to an animal cell.

Samantha Porn: Endangered Species Webquest: In this webquest teams must figure out why their species is listed as endangered, either geographically specific to that National Park or other places around the world. Then they must create a recovery plan for their endangered species. The plan must be in a creative format, i.e. Powerpoint, poster, Prezi, etc. Each team will consist of a botanist, a marine biologist, a park ranger, & a geographer. These student roles will help the teams create their recovery plan and understand what their scientific jobs entail, all while acquiring useful skills in a classroom setting.

Yazmin TorresTorres: Building a Dream Business. How does science play a role in construction? The students will take their roles as either a geologist, biologist, physicist, and chemist to decide how and where to construct a new business. Students will work as a team and wil present their findings as a group presentation.

Scott Birns: Land Before Time Webquest: In this webquest, students are assigned the responsibility of creating a dinosaur theme park based on the research that they will do. Students will learn about the various biomes of the world, prehistoric plants and animals, past climates, and will also learn about food chains. By working as a team the students will practice their teamwork skills.

Sarah Verdun: Wind Energy: A Bunch of Hot Air? - Through this activity, students work in groups to explore this issues around wind energy. The project presents students with the challenge of advising national leaders on the expansion of wind farms in the rural Midwest. Students adopt roles as experts in various fields of science and the project culminates with a group presentation of their recommendation and rationale.
