Does a clean pool really matter? Grade 9 Technology Project 2006

The world around us is changing constantly, what was new yesterday, is old today. CD’s are ‘so last season’ MP3’s and iPods are the way forward. But where do these technologies come from? Someone had to invent them didn’t they?

Focus Question: What is the greatest South African contribution to technology?

In groups of 3, decide the following: –What is the question asking us? –What are some of the answers? –How can we find out more answers? Use mind maps or ask others - brainstorm in any way that you want to! Task 1: Brainstorming

Task 2: Research Now that you have decided on what you want to know, you need to begin to gather information through Research and Investigation You may use any media that you wish to (internet, books, interviews, newspapers)

Task 4: Billboard You need to create a clever billboard to promote this invention. A billboard is not an information poster, but a statement. You need to plan it carefully and it should meet the following criteria: Have minimal text (no long sentences) the message should be conveyed visually it should be striking and eye catching it should be relevant to people from different languages, backgrounds and ages

The billboards will take the form of a handmade poster using paint, crayons, koki’s etc. You may print and stick onto the paper Your billboard should be A1 in size, and I will provide paper for each group The rest of the materials needed, you must provide

Billboard example The South African leader… Sticks like nothing on earth

Assessment Your billboard will be assessed based on the following criteria (see rubric for details) : –Minimal word usage (7) –Ability to convey message visually (7) –Relevance to a wide audience (7) –Effectiveness (7) –Presentation, layout and neatness (7) Total: 35
