Good sample projects Form 3 Wifi course work

This term Form 3 looked at wifi connectivity in KTJ. This was their first ever piece of Geography fieldwork. For many it was the first time that they had full control of their own learning. The students were on their own other than an initial lesson on what makes a good hypothesis, scaffolding for the final project (what sections needed to be included and a marking rubric) and comments on their first draft. It is fair to say that many found it difficult and the final projects were not what they might have been.

Here are some anonymised good examples of fieldwork that was produced by students in other classes at KTJ. These case studies were used as part of a debrief when students were asked to assess where the project went well and where it could be improved upon. 

These case studies are good because they have a clear method that makes it clear to anyone who would want to repeat the experiment exactly what they would need to do. They also go beyond displaying the results, and actually interpret what they show and evaluate how more accurate results could be gathered if the experiment were to be repeated again. This is that many students failed to do this time. 

For anyone in form 3 reading - it is fine that the first attempt didn't go as well as it should have. The important thing to do is make sure that you learn from your mistakes!
