If you choose to turn in a project in physics, it will replace your lowest test grade (or not at all if it is lower than your lowest test grade). The project must meet the following requirements:
- The project must be completed and turned by Sunday April 29th at 11:50 PM. I will create an assignment in WebAssign in which you can turn it in electronically. If you are not using WebAssign, discuss how to turn it in with me.
- You must complete the project individually.
- If you copy stuff that you found online, I will consider this plagiarism and follow the appropriate academic misconduct policies as stated in the student handbook.
- The project must contain some physics concepts as well as some calculations. It does not necessarily need to include data collection (but many projects might do this).
- The project must be in some electronic format. Ideally, this would be in html so that I can post it for other students to see. If not in html, it should be in a form that I can easily convert to html.
- When you submit your project, you agree to let me post it so that other students can see it. Hopefully, all projects will be useful for other students.
- You can turn in your project early if you desire. If you do so, I will gladly give you feedback so you can improve your project. Early, in this case means more than one week before it is due.
- If you are not sure about a particular topic for a project, I will happy to discuss the feasibility of such a project. If you are stuck and do not have an idea, come see me and I will help you brainstorm an idea. Feel free to contact me at any point during your project for guidance, I will be happy to help.
