MCV4U Final Project Instructions and Rubric Name:___________________________
For your final project, you will incorporate what you have learned in the Calculus component of the
course into a creative representation. Some projects in the past have included music videos, story
books, short movies, etc.
Use the rubric to guide you in your preparation. You should not "gloss over" the mathematical concepts
you have learned; rather, you should use the concepts you know and go into detail (possibly providing
specific examples) about what they could be used for. Your target audience is the Calculus class, but do
not assume that everyone remembers everything!
You should consider the main topics studied in class (listed below) as well as the more specific concepts
within the main topics on which you choose to focus.
Rates of Change
Limits
Continuity
Derivatives
Higher order Derivatives
Optimization
Related Rates
You may work individually or in partners. Note that if you work in partners, you will both earn the same
grade on this assignment, so take that into consideration when choosing your partner.
