Hoop Gliders Criteria for Poster and Rubric

What does your poster need?
Sketch of original HG
Data table and analysis of 5 trials
Definition of BETTER
Explanation of why you thought the changes would make it better.
Sketch of the "better" design
Data table of 5 trials and analysis of data
Conclusion: Was it "better"? How much better? or How much not better? Compare the percentages based on the means.



To earn a 5 on the project your poster must be complete, accurate and neat. You must have a a clear definition of "BETTER" supported by the sketch and an explanation of why you anticipated improvement from the new design. The conclusion must be mathematically supported by using an analysis of the means to find the percentage of better or not better.

(Yes, I know not better sounds like poor grammar, and it is, but we are not looking at fails- we are looking at analyzing for improvement.)
