Things To Think About For Projects
1 REFERENCES/BIBLIOGRAPHY
ALWAYS cite references, and keep formatting consistent throughout. For example, you
can have a bibliography at the end (like of a book or video) or the bottom (like on a poster) in
tiny script, and reference specific things by using superscript numbers that link you to the
specific reference source. If your project cannot involve written material directly, then please
print out a bibliography.
Mark and Nancy Deyrup. The Caterpillar that Recycles Turtles. 2007. Wings.
Jeanne K. Hanson. The Beastly Book: 101 of the Worlds Most Dangerous Creatures. 1993.
Prentice Hall General Reference.

published source, but IN YOUR OWN WORDS; this can be also be referenced with
superscripts. I will check everyones work with regard to this.
4 STRUCTURE
For projects that involve artwork for gallery-type presentationthey must have accompanying
text for plaques. Remember that at least 3 elements need to be included in project media that
involve a series.
5 PRESENTATION
You can use PowerPoint, or not, for your presentation. But DO NOT copy & paste text into ppt
presentations, DO NOT READ off your project for your presentation (although you can refer to it,
or use it as an illustration of something)! This presentation is on the bug itselfits
morphology, ecology, habitat, behaviors, etc.not the design or rendering of the project; thus if
a student chooses to make a short film on the conservation of Monarch butterflies, the oral
presentation should be on the basics (e.g., life-cycle, migration, etc.) of Monarchs, not on the
details of the film production. The presentation is NOT a regurgitation of the info included
in the projectproject needs to be detached from presentation. Please make it briefI will
have to cut off at 7 minutes!
