Distance Learning: Waves in the Real World Presentations Project

The purpose of this project is to challenge students to make connections between longitudinal and transverse waves and their real-life applications. This project is a great extension after a unit on light vs. sound waves, wave characteristics, etc. that will get students building relevance and understanding on their content knowledge. They get to be the scientists, researchers, and hone in on an essential real-world skill: public speaking! This project challenges students to think outside the box and be the most knowledgeable people about their chosen tech application.

**Rubric Included. Recommended Online Teaching Strategy: Have students record their presentations at home. Divide students into groups on Schoology (you can assign "groups" in the "members side-bar of a Schoology class) and create mini-discussion boards for them to share their presentations with each other, get feedback, reflect, and for you to track individual student work.**
