Mini-Project #1
:Creating a Science Reference Data Bank
This mini-project is designed to help you create for yourself and other science students a data bank for use when doing research projects and gathering information. All of the information that is gathered will be used to create a large Reference Manual for students to use. The references will also be posted on the website as we go through the school year and are covering each topic.
Directions: There are 15 categories listed below. You are to choose 10 of the 15 and find 5 references that fit into that category. Each category needs to have a combination of 2-3 computer references and 2-3 book references, totaling to 5. Create a Reference Manual that you will turn in.
Computer sources: URL, Site Name, 2-3 sentences that describes the site.
Book sources: Title, Author. ISBN number, 2-3 sentences that describes the book
NOTE: Encyclopedias, Atlases, Dictionaries only apply to the General Reference Category
