How will we show what we know and can do?
Create a product that summarizes, explains, and personalizes the senior project expectations. In other words, answer the questions, “What is the senior project? What do you have to do when? What is your plan? What happens if you don’t do it?” The audience for this product is family members at a holiday gathering; pretend that you are at a family gathering and need to explain to family what you need to do for the senior project. This product includes authentic examples of work during this session and uses APA documentation. Click here for more specific details.
