Evaluation+Stage

=Evaluation=

The emphasis during this stage, for which two hours is probably necessary, is on students sharing their findings, both successes and failures, with other students. How this is achieved can be decided by the teachers, the students or jointly. The symposium or science fair could also be attended by parents, members of the school board and the press. This would be especially pertinent if some issue of local importance has been researched. Some of the findings might influence the way the school interacts with its environment or local community.
 * One solution is to devote a morning, afternoon or evening to a symposium where all the students, as individuals or as groups, give brief presentations.
 * Alternatively, the presentation could be more informal and take the form of a science fair where students circulate around displays summarizing the activities of each group.
