Science Fair Update

Science Experimenters:
Hypothesis and Purpose Statements due Thursday,  October 30th.  We'll go over this requirement tomorrow in class.
Procedure and Materials List due Tuesday, November 4th.

You may begin your experiments at any time.  However, all experiments should begin no later than Wednesday, November 5th in order to provide enough time to experiment and to document the results.

Design Project Engineers:
You may begin your Ideate Process.  You will be documenting 3 separate Ideate iterations using the slides provided.  The ideate process should take at least 1-2 weeks to complete.  You should spend at least 3 days on each idea.  We will model the process in class starting next week.  After the ideate phase is complete, you choose your best idea and build a prototype from the schematics you create during the ideate process.  The three ideas for the Ideate process should be completed by November 14th.

You do not have to wait for the due dates.  We will give guidance as a class during science. However, you are all on your own scientific journey.  You can work ahead if needed.  Be sure to give yourself enough time to complete each step of your process thoroughly.

Good luck!
