7th: Passion Project (rubric)
-
Questions/resources: This document is to jot down questions you need answered during your project. As you start to ask questions, you’ll think of things to google and research. As you find resources (organizations you might work with, etc.) and links that are helpful, paste them into this Google Doc. This GDoc will be used throughout the whole project as you’re working on your own, but we’ll just start it today.
-
Scheduling: While you’re doing your questions/resource document, you’ll probably start to understand what you need to do first to start your project. This document is for you to work out your own “to do” list, step by step. This might change as you go and realize you need to do extra things or switch things around. That’s fine. This is a working document.
