Tech and Web Design Final Exam Teacher Outline



Tech and Web Design Final

Description: Students demonstrate their RESEARCH and PRESENTATION skills by producing and presenting a 7-page website on an emerging technology. Students will work in teams of three.

Your project will consist of a research phase, a web design phase, and a presentation phase.

Project Selection:

You will choose your technology topic from the list in this document. Only one group will be able to choose a given topic from the list. We will randomly determine which group gets to select first within their given hour.

Research Phase:

• Groups will create a Google Doc that contains their research. Each person on the team must be invited and contribute to the Google Doc.

• Your research must address the following areas:

o What is the technology?

o Describe how the technology works in detail.

▪ What are the major components

▪ A diagram may be useful

o Discuss why the technology is significant.

o Speculate how the technology might be used in the future, different from what it was originally designed to do. These are your original thoughts based on what you have learned about your technology.

o Locate at least six images related to your technology.

• Google Doc must include a bibliography that cites any/all resources for your project. You must have a minimum of 5 resources. You may only use one general/non-academic or professional resource (i.e. Wikipedia, Ask, Websters, Dictionary, etc.) You need to cite a resource for all images as well. Please use APA format.
