The Research project

The Research Project is an opportunity to:

• research something you are interested in
• decide how you carry out your research
• decide on the way you produce your findings
• make judgements about how successful you've been

Throughout the project, you are in control of your own learning. You will explore and develop one or more capabilities that are relevant to being a successful SACE graduate, as well as navigating, learning and living in a fast-paced and changing world.

The term ‘research’ is used broadly and may include practical or technical investigations, formal research, or exploratory inquiries. The Research Project is a varied and individual journey undertaken by each student and supported by your Research Project teacher.

Throughout the Research Project you will explore an area of interest in depth, while developing skills to prepare you for further education, training, and work. You will develop your ability to question sources of information, make effective decisions, evaluate your own progress, be innovative, and solve problems.
