Step 1: Material List
On the googleslide, that you have previously created, add a new slide and title it "Material List" (see template from TASK 2, Step 4). Use two column layout for this slide. You can change the layout by selecting "slide" from top menu bar > select "apply layout" > select "title and two column".
Part 1: Create material List
List all of the materials used for this project
Use bullet points for each item
Be sure to include accurate measurements, sizes, and quantities of the materials used
Be sure to include units when appropriate ( e.g., 5 ml, 10 g, 10 minutes)
Be sure to use correct scientific term and size for any science equipment or tools you use
e.g., Correct: One 500 ml Beaker, Incorrect = One large cup
e.g., Correct: 50 ml of deionized water, Incorrect = water
e.g., Correct: Electronic balance with .1 gram accuracy, Incorrect = measuring scale
Part 2: Pictures of your Materials (Optional)
You may chose to include picture of materials by adding another slide to your googleslide presentation. On this page, see Step 3 Procedure-Part 2 Tips, for how to insert and label pictures.
Step 2: Procedure
On the googleslide, that you have previously created, add a new slide and title it "Procedure" (see template from TASK 2, Step 4).
Part 1: List all the procedures for your project or model.
Type each step as a numbered list (e.g., 1, 2, 3)
Write in 2nd person present tense (like you are telling someone what to do)
Correct: 1. Measure 200 mL of water and pour into bowl
Incorrect: 1. I measured 200 mL and poured it into the bowl
Include diagrams, if necessary, to explain the setup of your project or model.
Be detailed – one of your classmates should be able to read your procedure and recreate your project!
If you repeat the same steps but just use a different chemical/type/size of material, etc., it is fine to say “Repeat steps x to xx using [new material] instead of [original material]
Steps should be no more than a few lines long – if they are longer, break them up into simpler steps
DO NOT copy and paste steps from any source – if you got ideas for your procedure from another source, you should rewrite them in your own words. (The source should be listed in the bibliography.)
Part 2: Pictures of model and observations
Include pictures for all major steps and observation (this step can be completed later on, as you explain your project or model).
If applicable, take pictures of your model (do not include your or other student's face on any of the pictures). For some of the models, it might be better to also record the change using a video camera. You may use your own judgment or consult with your teacher to see, if video recording is necessary for your experiment.
Include pictures of all major steps (Note: do not include your or other student's face on any of the pictures).
Show before and after change, when applicable.
Be sure to include more slide(s), when needed.
Tips for saving and inserting pictures to googleslide presentation:
It is highly recommended that you save all of your pictures related to the project on the google drive under school email. Also, save these pictures on a USB drive as a backup.
To insert pictures, go to “insert” from the top menu bar.
Select insert “image”
Depending on where you have saved image earlier, you can select appropriate option “upload”, “take a snapshot, “google drive” and/or “your album”.
After adding the image(s) you can resize it, by highlighting and dragging the corner of the image. You can also change the position of the picture by dragging and dropping it to another location on the slide.
Label and/or describe the picture by using textbox from the toolbar.
Step 3: Safety and Regulation (if any)
On the googleslide, that you have previously created, add a new slide and title it "Safety" (see template from TASK 2, Step 4).
Be sure to include all safety precautions that you will use to protect yourself. e.g., wear goggles, gloves, lab coats, adult supervision.
If you are working with chemicals (house hold or laboratory grade) be sure to list safety guide lines from the Safety Data Sheet information.
Be sure to include proper disposal methods for chemicals and biohazardous materials.
