Ask me whether you are presenting in the 1st or 2nd session today. Partners present separately.
During your session today you must stand by your project (tape all components up, including any references)
to present your project to classmates and answer their questions. During the other session today you'll be doing
peer review.
By the end, turn in your project components, peer review, and self
evaluation. I'm sorry that I can only spend a limited amount of time on each project
(so I can get around), but I'll look at your project more carefully later!
Peer Review: You should spend the entire research session when you are not presenting yourself engaging in mathematical discussions and reflections
and the depth of the peer review comments is a part of your grade. Continue peer review until I call time.
- Name of the person and the topic
- List what the equations represent
- List what the mathematical images represent
- List the diverse mathematicians and their accomplishments/impacts
- Comment on the connections to geometry, algebra, statistics, probability
- How much time and effort does it look like they
put into their work, as compared to your own effort?
[2 = more than me, 1 = about the same as me, 0 = less than me]
- Invent a question about the project and ask it. Write down your question
and the person's answer.
- What was the most interesting thing you learned or saw?
- Name the strongest part of their project related to the project criteria
- Give suggestions for improvement related to the project criteria
Neighbors:
During your research session, if you are waiting for someone to come hear
you, then listen to your neighbors and do a partial peer review of their
project, but stay by your project.
Self Evaluation: Answer the following after you have presented your
project:
- Your name and topic
- What would you have improved about your project?
- What did you feel went well?
- What would you have included with more time and space?
- (Only for those who worked with a partner) How did you work together or divide up the
work? Do you deserve the same grade as your partner? If not, why not?
