Final Poster and Individual Projects 3/20/19

Rationale

The rationale behind these procedures is to ensure that poster creations for Scholar’s day follow the correct format and that basic poster requirements are understood. The procedures were also done to finish the poster for Scholar’s Day. In addition, the rubric and groups for the individual projects were introduced so that work can begin on the projects.

Tools/Procedure

1. Final edits were made to the poster in order to have it ready by Friday
   • 2 edits were made to the discussion section of the poster to reflect changes in the genome annotations
2. Groups for individual projects were introduced and rubric was discussed
3. Groups brainstormed about what individual questions to pursue and consulted with the coaches

Results

The image above shows the 2 small changes made to the discussion section to reflect new annotations. There are no other results to report as group brainstorming is currently a work in progress.

Conclusion

There is not much that can be said as a conclusion as this was a poster making and brainstorming day. I can say that Rachel and I may pursue research into comparing NapoleonB to the Arthobacter host that it came from to see if it acquired any bacterial DNA.

Future Plans

In the future, we will continue working as a class to create a poster for Scholar’s day and Rachel and I will begin research for our individual projects.
