BASD Tech Fest
Student Showcase Project Submission
The Tech Fest Student Showcase is just around the corner. We are excited to see your project! There will be lots of fun things happening on that day and we wanted to let you know what to expect.
Every teacher in the district will be attending this event which means you will have lots of visitors viewing your project. You will also be invited to eat lunch at one of 7 food trucks between 11:00 - 12:00. Another benefit of participating is the fact that you are going to receive your very own BASD Tech Fest T-shirt.
But wait, there’s more! All of the people that visit the Student Showcase will have an opportunity to vote for The People’s Choice Award (a cash prize)! There will also be door prizes and other raffles happening during the Student Showcase. Aren’t you glad you decided to participate???
The Details
Project Submission is February 24, 2016. See this screencast below to walk you through the process. Please follow ALL directions to get credit for your project.
March 24th, 2016 is the Tech Fest Student Showcase at Jr High West. You MUST arrive by 9:00 and a parent/guardian MUST stay with you until 12:00. (If you are part of a group project, only one parent/guardian needs to attend.)
During the showcase you will stand with your project and answer any questions about your project as people visit. Some questions to consider:
How did you come up with the project ideas?
What steps did you take to create your project?
What challenges did you face along the way?
What did you learn throughout the creation process?
How did the technology help you learn the topic?
Feel free to bring any materials to support your project to display. There will be 2 projects per table.
You will have time between 11:00 - 12:00 to go purchase lunch at the food trucks. Vouchers for the food trucks will be on sale the morning of the Student Showcase. Food Truck vouchers are $10.00 and will purchase a lunch entree and drink.
