Week 13: 17th Century - Galileo

Web Project assignment: Episode Week 7 of 7

# Due Date Pts Activity Time
6 Monday
11:59 p.m.
10 Web Project
this is a semester-long project where, little-by-little and step-by-step each week, you create your own web project on an aspect of the history of science of special interest to you
90 min -
2 hours

The rest of this page assumes that you are familiar with the general description of this weekly assignment found on the Web Project assignments page. After reading that description and completing last week's Web Project assignment, you are ready to begin this week's assignment.

This is Episode Week 7: if you have not already done so, you will publish your third and final Episode!

Each week over a 7-week period, you have three choices:

  1. Research and write a draft of an Episode (3 times)
  2. Publish an Episode on the Internet (3 times)
  3. Take a pass (one time)

The later in the semester you take your pass, the better: The sooner you publish, the more feedback you will receive from your classmates, and the more feedback you receive, the better your grade is likely to be!

You may take your pass whenever you like during this 7-week period. For example, you could take a pass before one of your three research draft weeks (spending a total of 3 weeks on that episode, instead of the usual 2 weeks per episode).

Warning to perfectionists: You can always revise your episodes after they are published, before they are graded (after Week 13), so to benefit from your classmates' feedback, don't wait to publish them until they are polished!

During the week that you take a pass, you do not need to let me know that you are taking a pass.
