Toshiba Invention Research Data for Feature Article and Web Page Designs
Audience: Populations and Toshiba Exploravision Judges with a similar dissatisfaction with the performance of a technology or wish the technology were invented to solve the problem.
Purpose: research technology functions and improve upon an aspect in order to conserve natural resources and assist the welfare of our community.
Method: Feature Article written in contest guidelines and design 5 web page layout (make a power point page with the imaginary abilities to move written below)
Bibliography – keep cite information Copy to a word doc. and save to thumb driveor your serve space. Everyone’s must be on one page at the end!
7 Tips for success:Win $$$ and Prizes, lap tops, trip:
1. Treat each section as a separate report with a thesis statement!
2. These mini reports are the presenter’s voice and the “Web Page” visual is the slide we will see as you speak. You will present to the class and I hope to the Judges in person.
3. The first “Web Page” is a Home page with Tabs that “link” to all the other parts and a really cool design of your futuristic invention/innovation.
*These are easy if you saved all your pictures and bibliographies on a thumb drive as you go, cut paste pictures and add Neat and simple focal point. It is not wordy, that is what the report is for.
4. Special # ## on every page, NO Personal names of any kind!
5. All “Web Pages” are to be made as a power point slide and saved as a picture (snip it) so in can be copied into the end of your teams 1 word document that is in order of the contest rules and in the same font and double spaced and same syyle of heading!
6. SAVE your 1 document as your special ####
7. Email it to me by the end of your class on Jan. 30 so it can be uploaded by 4:30 at the latest.
