Resource+Analysis

=Resource Analysis=

===Materials will include print and a collection of online resources. Special attention will be given to ensure students understand how to critically assess the source and validity of online resources they may encounter in their research. As previously mentioned, most of the learning tasks are hands on lab based work. The final boat race does present some specific challenges with regards to resources.===

__Cost:__

 * ===Cardboard cost may be a factor if you are doing the unit on your own and competing internally. Wax coated cardboard (which is more expensive) should be used to avoid the material disintegrating in the water and causing damage to the pool filters. If the unit is done in conjunction with one of the Skills Canada competitions, they provide the materials.===
 * ===Pool rental may be an added expenditure, but fortunately we have a pool on site.===
 * ===Transportation to and from the venue will need to be included in the budget.===

__Access to Resources:__

 * ===Digital video recorder will be used for the video documentary===
 * ===Access to computers with video editing capabilities===


 * ===Other lab materials will need to be purchased such as:===
 * ===Eggs===
 * ===Salt===
 * ===Tinfoil===
 * ===Tennis balls===
 * ===hockey pucks===
 * ===Tape===
 * ===String===
 * ===paperclips===
 * ===Exacto knives===

__Safety:__

 * ===Students will need close supervision and instruction in the safe handling of cutting instruments.===
