Exploravision Project Information: Due August 28, 2015 (Test Grade)
Only papers submitted to TurnItIn will be accepted.
Part 1: History—Research and describe the history of the technology from its inception.
Part 2: Present Technology—Give an overview of the present form of the technology, including some scientific principles involved in how it functions. Define a key challenge or limitation of this present technology that you will address in your ExploraVision project.
Part 3: Design Process–Describe three alternative ideas or features the team considered for this ExploraVision project. The ideas and features should be directly related to the entry, not a list of other entries you may have submitted. Describe why the team rejected each feature and idea in favor of the ones in the submitted ExploraVision technology. Describe the team’s design process.
Part 4: Bibliography–All sources used in researching the chosen technology should be referenced in the bibliography. Sources must be clearly labeled and include title, author, publisher, and copyright date. Internet sources, interviews, and non-original graphics should also be referenced in the bibliography. Footnotes are encouraged, but not required. The bibliography is not counted as part of the description.
Part 5 and 6: Format and conventions
Be sure to double-space, 12 pt. standard type, 1 in margins. Make a heading for each section of your paper. Art work can be included, but be sure to give appropriate credit.
