Advanced Science Research 4

ADVANCED SCIENCE RESEARCH 4 – (Year Course, 1 Unit, Grade 12 – 3 Periods/cycle + independent study) 

This third and final course in a three-year sequence will provide students with more sophisticated experiences in research methodology. During senior year, students refine their papers based on their original research. Students will continue to make presentations of their research findings to their teachers, class, and school community. They write essays and prepare poster presentations for the Intel Science and Engineering Fair, Regeneron Science Talent Search, Junior Science and Humanities Symposium, Long Island Science Congress, and other appropriate contests and symposia while continuing to keep in close contact with their research mentor. In addition to class meetings, students will meet at least once every twelve school days one-on-one with their teacher. Full time summer research is required prior to the start of this course. Seniors in the course will share their expertise with younger researchers in ASR 2 & ASR 3. Students may obtain college credit from SUNY Albany. Prerequisite: Advanced Science Research 3. Co-Requisite: Enrollment in an advanced science class and permission of the teacher and the science chairperson
