❖ Read the materials! ❖ Know how work will be
evaluated- Before work is begun!
❖ Ask for assistance before
a deadline is missed!
Don’t let this be you!
You delete your ePortfolio... You blow off deadlines… You don’t save the pics that you took of your Product on your phone... You plagiarize your Product, Paper or Presentation...
■ Consequences for changes of proposal: ■ No further in-school disruption of Shop or
before or after school! ■ No extensions will be given for due dates!
Was due last spring!
Trimester 1 = Product (75) & Portfolio (25) (+10) Trimester 2 = Paper (75) & Portfolio (25) Trimester 3 = Presentation (75) & Portfolio (25) (+3)
Paper + Portfolio = 100 points Presentation + Portfolio = 100 points Product + Portfolio = 100 points
