![]() Although the science 30s have really been unsuccessful in handing anything in this semester, it is my hope that this final project, with daily check ins, allows them to successfully use their time and complete the project. This alternative energies project replaces their unit test mark for Unit D, as there is less to test and more to understand and know in the final unit.... I am really hoping they pull up their socks and hand something in! Otherwise the diploma is going to be very difficult! The in class final for science 30 will be during the FLEX day Monday June 15. There is a diploma exam in the morning, and for that reason, the Science 30 final will be at 2pm on Monday afternoon. If the students do not show up for this exam, they will receive a zero on their in class final, which is worth 5% of their class mark. The more detrimental fact is that the final can replace the midterm mark if it is an improvement. I have seen students jump by 20% after this replacement, so it is beneficial for the science 30s to study and try hard on it! I would also suggest students sign up for the Science 30 diploma prep course. This is an additional course (with cost) that reminds them of all they need to know for the diploma, and all they seemed to have forgotten throughout the semester! I have found students who take diploma prep do between 10-15% better on the diploma than those who did not take the course!
