The Universe & Beyond Expert Project
Project Plan of Action
You are about to embark on a journey and become an expert on a part of “Space Science” that you are most interested in. For the next few weeks you will conduct research so that you can become an expert on this topic. We will go to the MMS Library, use the computer labs & some class time to work on this. In order to complete this project, you will need to do some work at home.
Best practice: Set up a plan for yourself, budgeting your time around all of your other commitments… but become that expert & do it on time.
1) The topic I chose is ______________________________________________. I chose this topic because ____________________________________________.
2) What challenges do you foresee in completing this Expert Project & what will you do to overcome them?
3) What types of materials / resources will you use to become an expert on your topic?
4) What will you write that will reflect what you learned from your research?
5) What will you create that will reflect what you learned from your research?
6) Describe the time line for your project.
Questions, Comments, Concerns: _________________________________________________

Mahopac Library
- You need to make at least one trip to the Mahopac Library by October 14, 2012.
- You need to borrow materials & make use of them. (Could be books, videos, magazines,etc)
- You need to learn to use the online catalogue, order & make use of materials from at least one other library. You will be taught how to do this in the computer lab at school.
- All of this requires you have a Mahopac Library Card. (You know, the one you were suppose to get as part of your science back to school supply list!)
