Abstract
The final project is the most important part of the course. Students will spend roughly half the course or more working on this project. It is basically an application of everything the students have learned in the class and even ties in some of their previous coursework. This project represents about 40% of the students’ entire grade and has many components, small and large. There are various approaches a teacher can take to this project depending on what your college expects. These approaches will be discussed in detail.
