Overview
In most subjects project homework is set in Key Stage 3. These projects will help you to develop research and investigation skills which will help enormously when you reach Year 10. It is important that you learn the following skills:
Time management - make sure you meet the deadlines that are set.
Research skills - you need to use things such as reference books, the internet and questionnaires. It is not acceptable to copy information word for word from reference books or from the internet.
Investigation - collect data and then interpret this.
Presentation - your work needs to be neat, well organised and clearly named. You will be given credit for the creativity of your presentation.
Development - you need to show how your project has developed, in a clear way. You should use any feedback provided by your teacher to improve your work.
Evaluation - this is very important and needs to be completed well. You need to be able to make judgements about the success of your work and be able to criticise it and look for ways to improve it.
We would encourage you to talk to your family and, wherever possible, visit relevant places to gain first hand information.
