Congratulations, your hydroponics is ready!!!

Presentation discussion of projects

This week, students should present their finished project on the following points:

1. Scientific research on the topic: Hydroponics vs traditional method

– ready-made presentation made on whatman or in other applications of your choice;

– discussion by the whole class.

2. Hydroponic system

– by presenting and showing the model, the group demonstrates knowledge in the field of natural science, namely in engineering;

– demonstrate the hydroponic system.

3. Laboratory tests:

– explain the principle and action of the nutrient solution;

– analyze the quality of water.

Evaluation

PBL evaluation criteria:

Project based learning (project-based learning) is a learning method in which students acquire knowledge and skills by working on one project for 3 or 4 weeks to research and find an answer to a genuine, interesting and complex question, problem or challenge (follow the link below PBL Rubrics ).
