There is no one way to do a Senior Project; your work will be as individual as you are. There are, however, four components that are part of every student’s Senior Project:

■ Visual/ Audio Evidence in your presentation– Your Senior Project will focus on the

creation compilation evidence (something that can be seen, heard, touched or tasted- for example, photos, a DVD, a CD, an art portfolio, a scrapbook, a website, an engine block, a meal…) that demonstrates your acquisition and use of specific skills and knowledge. *Must have proof (pictures/video/etc) of you doing your senior project.

■ Portfolio –Your Senior Project will include a portfolio with a collection of artifacts that documents the development of your final work. This portfolio will include some information and worksheets from this manual. Keep the manual in a safe place; it will guide you through the entire project. In addition to other pages, your portfolio will include the following items:

o Cover page o Essential Question o Reflective Essay o Project Proposal o Journal Entries o Parent Authorization Form o Mentor documentation

■ Exhibition – You will present your Senior Project before a panel of teachers and

community members. An audience including parents/ guardians, peers, teachers, and community members may also be present. *Max of 30 minutes including: set up, presentation, questions, and clean up

■ Reflective Essay – A reflective essay addresses the issues, changes, key learning, and any unanswered questions you experienced as part of your Senior Project. Drawing from your experience and portfolio contents, in your reflective essay include new areas of interest that have resulted from your Senior Project, realizations about yourself, and connections you see (or don’t see) between your project and your future. Your reflective essay will be written before your exhibition.

What is a Senior Project?

In order to meet State graduation requirements, your senior must participate in and successfully complete a Senior Project. This experience provides students the chance to design and implement a project that represents their interests, the knowledge and skills they have gained in school and their vision for the future. While students voluntarily select their own topic, every project must meet the following three requirements:

be connected to the Career Related Learning Standards (CRLS):

involve an adult mentor; and

seek a solution to a problem, design or invent something original, and or conduct an experiment or other in- depth research, make a contribution to society, research a career through job experience and training.

It must incorporate four components:

Audio/ Visual Product – The project results in the creation of a tangible product that demonstrates the student’s acquisition and use of specific skills and knowledge. It is the evidence of the student’s learning.

Portfolio – The project includes a portfolio with a representative collection of artifacts that documents the development of the final work, such as project status reports, project plans, resource list, evaluation forms, etc.

Exhibition – Students present their projects to a panel of teachers and, if possible, community experts, parents/ guardians, and peers.

Reflective Essay – An essay the addresses the issues, challenges, key learning, and unanswered questions the student experiences as part of the Senior Project.

What will your student be expected to do? In order to select the topic and mentor, your student:

may need to participate in Senior Project activities or research during school hours and non-school hours;

may need to travel off campus to property and places not owned or operated by the school or school district;

may need to use phone, e-mail or internet to research ideas or contact potential mentors; and will not be under immediate supervision of school or school district staff when working on aspects of the project off-campus.

Your student will need to provide you with addition details about his/her selected topic, mentor, project activities, and expected timeline for project completion. Please check often with your student regarding their progress on this project.

* * * * * I authorize my senior to participate in the activities related to the selection of a topic and mentor for the Senior Project. I understand this will include travel and unsupervised time away from campus.

Clatskanie High School Secondary Programs Support Services

Dear Mentor,

Thank you for supporting a Clatskanie High School student to complete the Senior Project required

for graduation. The Senior Project provides students with the opportunity to design, develop and

implement a complex project that is academically rigorous and has personal relevance. We very

much appreciate you sharing your time and expertise. Your on-going work with the student will be

essential to his or her completion of a successful project.

Although the Senior Project is an individualized experience, all Senior Projects have four common

components. Each student is required to:

1. Produce a visual or audio product demonstrating the application of academic, technical and

organizational knowledge and skills.

2. Create a portfolio containing a collection of artifacts documenting the Senior Project process

from beginning to end.

3. Present the Senior Project in a formal exhibition before a panel of teachers and community

experts.

4. Write a reflective essay explaining challenges, acquired understanding and skills,

unanswered questions, and relevance to future goals.

In your role as a Mentor, you are requested to:

Provide advice and feedback for the student as he or she designs and creates a project.

Product does not have to be finished but should demonstrate rigor.

If possible, attend your student's exhibition as a member of the audience. Exhibitions are scheduled

in April.

Please review thoroughly and sign the attached agreement and return to the student. Ongoing

communication between you and your student is critically important. Students are expected to have a

minimum of 10 hours throughout the year of communication with you. If you have questions or

concerns throughout this year, please contact the High School at 503-728-2146.

Again thank you very much for your support. The Senior Project enables seniors to engage in unique

learning opportunities, and it is only with the participation of mentors that this opportunity is possible.

All entries must be typed into a Google Doc, saved and then printed off to be included in your Senior Portfolio (notebook). Entries are to be in MLA format and will be provided as individual assignments in Senior Essentials Google Classroom.

Use the prompts below to guide your writing.

Planning Entry #1 Thoughts and Concerns

What type of project might you want to do? (Consider one of those listed below.) o Research a career through a job shadow – minimum of 16 hours hands on o Community Project o Invent, design, build, restore, create, make, etc. something

What are your two main concerns?

Planning Entry #2 Career Interest Research 1) Prior to this entry you need to have completed the Career Interest Survey (CIS) and

Activities. (See enclosed CIS Packet for instructions.) 2) Entry:

What did you learn about yourself through these self-exploration activities and surveys?

What careers interest you the most?

What careers interest you the least?

What ideas do you have now for your Senior Project?

Planning Entry #3 Interests, Skills, and Knowledge It is important that your Senior Project represents your interests. The experience, however, must be grounded in the skills and experience that you have acquired in your CRLEs (Career Related Learning Experiences).

What skills or knowledge have you gained from your Career Related Learning Experiences and how will these skills or this knowledge help you in your Senior Project?

How will your prior experiences you have had help effectively carry out your Senior Project? (ie: classes, work experience, activities…)

What skills and knowledge gained from your academic or elective classes outside of your CRLEs will help you complete your Senior Project?

How will you apply these in your Senior Project?

Journal Entries that guide the process

Page 23: Senior Project Student Guide - PC\|MACimages.pcmac.org/.../ClatskanieHigh/Uploads/Forms/Senior_Project_2017-18.pdfYour Senior Project Proposal is a detailed report of exactly what

23

Planning Entry #4 Brainstorm A brainstorm is a creative, spontaneous, thinking process. You can get some ideas for your Senior Project by brainstorming. Take some time to think about the questions below. As you answer them, let your ideas flow without editing them; in a brainstorm the object is to get as many ideas out as possible, even if some of them seem silly or unrealistic at first. Remember, your Senior Project should be of personal interest to you and tied to your Career Related Learning Experiences.

What is something happening in the world that really bothers you? What do you think should be done? What skills do you have now to help make this change happen? What skills would you have to learn?

Is there a question or idea you would like to explore by doing an experiment or other kind of research? What kinds of resources do you think you would need to conduct your research?

What are your interests or hobbies? How do they connect with things you learn in school? How could you turn your interests or hobbies into a product or event? (Be creative and bold; connections which at first seem shaky may turn out to be rich and deep.)

Are there things you think people in your school or community need to know about (like recycling or traffic awareness)? How could you teach others about them?

Is there a product or service you think would greatly improve the community? How could you use the skills you have now (computer skills, public speaking, cooking, gardening, singing, fixing, building, etc.) to produce this product or service? What other skills would you need?

Planning Entry #5 Begin with the End Your Senior Project must involve one of the following:

o Research a career through a job shadow – minimum of 16 hours hands on o Community Project o Invent, design, build, restore, create, make, etc. something

Select one project idea from your list above. Write a paragraph on what the project would look like. Include ideas on how you might plan, carry out, and present the project. Include a description of your visual product.

What mentors/agencies/businesses might be available for this project?

Page 24: Senior Project Student Guide - PC\|MACimages.pcmac.org/.../ClatskanieHigh/Uploads/Forms/Senior_Project_2017-18.pdfYour Senior Project Proposal is a detailed report of exactly what

24

All students WILL keep a journal during the project. The entries should include dates/times/hours worked on project.

The journal should also record your thoughts/feelings/reflections on each day that you work on the project.

The entries can be as long as you like but the minimum requirement is two sentences for each day.

DO NOT SKIP THIS DAILY REFLECTION, YOU WILL REGRET IT!! THIS IS NOT ONLY REQUIRED BUT WILL MAKE YOUR REFLECTIVE ESSAY MUCH EASIER TO WRITE.

Your project journal will be posted in Google Classroom and saved in your drive

Example:

September 30th, 2 hours

Today I job shadowed my mentor for two hours. We looked at equipment and talked to other employees. I was nervous because this is my first time at the office. Everyone was nice but I was quiet because I’m not sure how I fit in yet.
