I have altered the direction on the project from using rubrics and self reflecting.

Now I am asking them to be more aware of the greater world around them. This time I asked the students to investigate NASA and given the national news on budget, I asked them to research NASA's budget.

Week one introduced the project and the way we were going. Week two students were asked to research and compare three funded projects aimed at the origin of the Universe. Week three students were asked to research the Aeronautics segment of NASA and the Budget of NASA. Week Four Students wrote outlines to prepare to and then write a 8-10 paragraph research paper. Week five I awill go back and ask them to reflect on their learning for this segment.
