Product Prospectus
1. The Research Question. Does Global Warming pose a deadly threat to mankind?
2. A description of the form which the final product will take. I will use Google Earth. It can show the effects that have already taken place, the effects that it will have in the future, and many other things.
3. A justification of that form (Why choose this particular form?) I decided on choosing Google Earth because it can show things that I mentioned in #2. Those things that Google Earth can provide would be perfect to help do a project on Global Warming.
4. A definition of the finished product. It will be computer animation.
5. A justification of how the finished product demonstrates mastery. The project will answer my research question because computer animation is a visual explanation in my mind and visual explanations give me a better understanding of things like my research question.
6. A task breakdown/work flow for the project. My flow of how the project will be completed will be in the following steps. Step 1. finish the rest of this prospectus. Step 2. do research. Step 3. Post a Daily progress post on my blog. Step 4. finish all the research. Step 5. post the required number of research index cards on my delicious account. Step 6. make a plan for the final production. Step 7. Start to create the production. Step 8. prepare for an in class presentation. Step 9. prepare and put the final touches on the project ( if any final touches need to be made) for exhibition night. Step 10. post a reflection on my blog after exhibition night.
7. The next actions for my project will be the steps typed on #6.
