Volumes of Solids of Revolution Project and Rubric This project requires students to choose an object with circular cross sections, use their graphing calculators or Excel to fit functions to data taken from their object, use those functions to find the volume of the solid, and then finally use a second method to check the accuracy of the volume.

End of the Year Project and Rubric This project sheet lists tons of different ideas from many different texts and websites that allow a student to investigate a topic individually or be creative in designing their own project (e.g., creating a Calculus board game, performing a Calculus song/rap). Some of the websites may no longer be working links, but feel free to contact me directly regarding any questions about texts or sites. The rubric for grading all of the projects is the second document listed above. Students were required to do a class presentation that was then critiqued by their peers. These peer sheets are the third document. (added by Sonya Land sonya@mathisfun.org)
