Description of the Presentation:     

eProjects can either be electronic projects on computer or projects created on the web.  These projects, used in leu of the traditional school report, are designed to demonstrate mastery of the state standards and content area information being learned within the curriculum.  Research shows that students who create multimedia projects that incorporate the higher level of Bloom's Taxonomy (such as the levels of applying, analyzing, evaluation and synthesis) and also incorporate multiple learning modalities, retain information longer and perform remarkably better on standardized tests.
