Product Explanation
The product is a representation of what the student has learned at the work site. Often, the student's imagination is a key element in creating an effective product because some jobs don't seem to lend themselves to visual representations of what is done during the job.
While posters can be part of a product, the student should have more than just a simple poster. The student may incorporate other visuals in addition to a poster, such as movies, banners, charts, diagrams, pamphlets, newsletters, menus, brochures, and any number of other possibilities. A list of product ideas will be given to the students.
The mentor and the teacher should act as guides for the students who are unsure about what to create, but it is ultimately the student's responsibility to come up with an idea.
Not only does this product count as a major grade for the class, it is also what the student will be presenting to the judges at the FASTRAK competition, and it is a major part of the portfolio. The student should invest several hours in the creation of the product and in the rehearsal of the portfolio presentation.
The most often repeated advice given by former CIBACS students about the junior year is DON'T PROCRASTINATE. This is an extremely important assignment and one through which you can express your resourcefulness and creativity. It could also be quite useful as practice for a career. The student should plan well, ask for advice from the teacher, and invest time in making the product look professional.
