the project method

Smartest Tractor suggested setting up an annual Worst Project of the Year Award.

Here's Steve H's reaction:

"...maybe the Kitchen Table Math Collective should send out an offical award every year to the teacher with the Worst Project Ever."

Great idea!

I'm game too.

Seriously.

It could make the national news. We could do it as an end of school year award. For our first award, we could select one from our current list.

One would have to specify which grade, which class or subject, and then a description of the project. Extra points should be given if it's done for math class.

Send out the press releases!

I've been mulling this over in my spare time.

It's a pretty cool idea.

I know how to write a press release, btw.
