GLOBAL SUN TEMPERATURE PROJECT
http://www.k12science.org/curriculum/tempproj3/en/
The Global Sun Temperature Project is an Internet-based
multidisciplinary project. It gives students a chance to
collaborate with other students and with experts online, in
determining how their locations affect their average daily
temperature and hours of sunlight. Students collect data at
their own locations, publish their work on the project web
site, and use project discussion boards to compare notes with
other participants.
Here are some important dates to remember:
- Registration opened March 10 and closes May 9
- Project began March 31 and continues through May 9
- Conduct the experiment May 12 - 16
- Submit the temperature and sunlight data May 16 - 21
- Graph and analyze the results May 23 - June 13
- Final conclusion May 23 - June 13
