Download Cell Organelle Analogy Project (worth 30 points)

Cell Organelle Analogy Project (worth 30 points) 5 members for each group ASSIGNMENT​
:​
Create an analogy for the organelles within a cell, their purpose, and how they interact with other organelles to help the whole cell function. Each group member will be in charge of learning about two organelles and reporting back to the larger group as to the purpose or function, location and a description of the organelle within a cell. OUTPUT:​
What you will produce is an Educreations, Prezi, or Explain Everything which shows your learning. You will be graded based on the attached scoring guide. PROCEDURE: 1. Each student in a group should choose TWO organelles. Write down who is doing what. You will need to decide if you are doing a plant or an animal cell. a. Cell Wall/ Chloroplast (if plant)
_____________________________ b. Lysosomes/ Microtubules (if animal)
_____________________________
c. Cell membrane/ Ribosomes
_____________________________ d. Mitochondria/ Vacuoles
_____________________________ e. Nucleus/ Cytoplasm
_____________________________ f.
_____________________________ ER/ Golgi Bodies
2. Research your assigned organelles ​
with other students who are assigned the same organelles​
. Write any information you find in the chart. Information can be found: a. in your textbook b. http://www.biology4kids.com/files/cell_main.html c. the iCell or 3D cell imaging app d. internet research 3. Report back to your group and teach them about your organelles​
now that you are the expert on these two organelles. 4. All group members will present what they have learned about the structure and function of their assigned organelles in the cell. Each group member should have a completed chart by the end of this step. 5. Decide how you will present your project. Suggested methods include: Explain Everything, Educreations, and Prezi. BEFORE YOU GET STARTED, think about the following: 1) Actual cells make proteins, but your cell can make anything you want. What is your cell making? _________________________________________ 2) Choose whether your model will be made of machines or people.

You can use three of the examples from above or from the factory analogy, but otherwise be original. 4) Make an Explain Everything (or Educreations or similar app) to show the construction of your cell model with a justification for each part. SCORING GUIDE The maximum score is 30 points. 24 points will come from this scoring guide. 6 points will come from a peer review that gauges whether you “did your share”. 0 1 2 3 4 Functions missing or completely incorrect most missing or most incorrect some missing or most incorrect all present and some incorrect all present and correct Materials missing most missing or most incorrect some missing or most incorrect all present and some incorrect all present and correct Reasoning for missing or choosing completely materials incorrect most do not represent functions well more than 2 are not well­justified most are fine, but 1 or 2 are “iffy” all are completely reasonable Visual presentation most information is missing some information is missing all slides are present but is sloppy all slides are present and neat Written missing or description of completely how parts incorrect work together most missing or incorrect major issues, but strong effort was put in minor issues everything is present and correctly explained Originality more than 3 of the examples or factory analogy used 3 of the examples or factory analogy used 2 of the examples or factory analogy used 1 or none of the examples or factory analogy used missing no creativity shown ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­ PEER REVIEW List the people in your group, starting with you: Your rating: 0 = did no work 2 = did not do much 4 = did what was required 6 = went above and beyond
