This week, we will be working together to assemble a book of different hand and power tools to use as reference. Each student will make a small 8.5x11 poster about one tool, and these pages will be bound together into a book. Each student is assigned a tool to research in class. This assignment will be worth one work habits grade and one research grade. Requirements: -Each student should make an 8.5x11 size poster which should be 3 hole punched and reinforced. -Work Habits: -The poster is neat and easy to read -The poster includes at least two relevant visuals -The poster should be handed in at the beginning of class on 2/14 -Research: -The poster should include the name of the tool as well as specific names of different versions/types of that tool. -The poster should include a picture of that tool -The poster should include a picture of the tool being used -The poster should report at least 3 different applications of this tool -The poster should demonstrate/explain how the tool works -The poster should identify the mechanical advantage being used, if the tool converts from one type of energy to another (potential to kinetic etc.) and/or any other relevant principles that it uses to operate (leverage, pressure, friction etc.) |
