Extra Credit http://www.watertown.k12.wi.us/HS/Staff/Meyers/meyer.php
Extractions: Mr. Meyer's Extra Credit Signup It seems like there are always people who want to do extra credit. I do not like giving out a bunch of problems...that is just busy work. I have decided that extra credit should be in the form of a report or project .These will be done on either a Mathematician , a Math Problem or a Type of Math (see the form below). The report may be either written or oral to your class. A project would be some sort of multimedia presentation to the class using either PowerPoint or Hyperstudio. If written, the report must be at least 3 pages double spaced with 1 inch margins. A 10 or 12 font is prefered and at least 3 sources must be cited in a bibliograpy. If an oral report or project is done it must be at least 5 minutes in length and must convey what you did, where you found things, etc. The reports and projects will count up to 5% of a quarter grade...meaning that if you have 78% and do a really good job, it will raise you to 83%. They may be done one time a Quarter . 5% is a big grade...so they need to be good. Time and planning are essential. Dont try to knock one out overnight, chances are you wont get a lot of points for something like that. You should also be aware that a multimedia presentation or oral report to your class will most likely get you a better percent than a written regurgitation to me.
