CANCER RESEARCH POSTER PROJECT
Cancer Research Poster ProjectThis chapter project focuses on what happens when cells do not function correctly. Many people are affected by cancer; you may even have some family members or friends that have or have had cancer. I suggest that you choose a cancer that affects someone you know or intrigues you because it is interesting. The goal is to research the cancer and orally present information and recent research through a poster or brochure. The poster/brochure should be an advertisement for a current treatment or way to avoid getting that cancer (i.e., not smoking). Be creative and use color and artwork.If you choose to do a brochure you must work on your own, if you choose a poster you may work on your own or select one partner to work with. You and your partner will receive the same grade no matter how much or how little work each partner performsImportant InformationDue date: Friday, 2/10Point value: 120 pointsDelivery method: brochure will be sent by e-mail, poster will be delivered by handPresentation (2-3 minutes): Students will present their findings to the class. All projects will be presented without reading from a card.Expectations: Brochure will be 2 sided and will be in a tri-fold format (formats can be found in Microsoft Word but not Google docs), posters will be done on large construction paper or poster-board (only construction paper will be provided). All elements will be included no matter which format you choose. All information must include a citation for where you found it. Failure to cite info will lead to loss in points. All students are expected to be working on their project while time is provided. Off-task behaviors will result in lost points on the project for both partners.Off-task behaviors that will result in lost points: Include, but not limited to, playing computer games, listening to music in any form, using a phone for ANY reason without teacher approval, computer abuse in any form.Group Names: ______________________ Cancer: _______________Cancer Poster/Brochure Grading RubricPresentation RequirementsEarned PointsPossible PointsCommentsIntroductionName the cancer5Definition of the cancer What happens to the cells?What part of the body does it generally affect?What gene(s) is/are mutated?20Description of the symptomsList all of the possible effects on the body5Possible causes of the cancerAre there environmental or health factors that can cause the cancer?Can the cancer be inherited?20PreventionWhat can be done to prevent getting this cancer?10How the cancer is treatedMedications?
