Instructor Approval

What are you thinking of doing for the project?
You must get approval for the basic direction you would like to go with your project.

You may decide later to change the direction or focus of your project. If you choose to do so, then another approval is required.

Rough Draft/Outline

What are you doing for your project?

This rough draft must include at least an outline of your project.

  • What type of 3D model are you doing?
  • How are you planning on building the model?
  • What will be your points of general mathematical analysis? (Domain/range, function type, implicit/explicit equation, interesting behaviors, etc.)
  • What components of calculus will you incorporate?
    (For example, how can you approximate the volume of your solid using calculus?)

Written Analysis (including pictures and graphs)

  • Quality and clarity of work (3 points)
  • Difficulty level (3 points)
  • Explanation of the construction process (3 points)
  • Mathematical analysis (3 points)
    • For example, a general 3D curve analysis would include discussions of the following: domain, range, and "interesting" features of the curve.
    • For example, what type of functions or relations are in your model? For example, what do your variables mean/measure?
  • Specific explanation on the role of calculus (3 points)
    • For example, a general 3D curve analysis would include discussion and calculation of the volume of the model.
    • For example, how did you use dx, dy, dz, dΘ, or dr in your calculations and why did you know to use it.
