Describe the connection between your research (annotated bibliography) and your product.
My research explained how land fracking will affect the planet in the long run as well as our lives. This will
help my final product because it will help me inform people of the dangers on land fracking.

How will you display the entire process in in your digital portfolio?
Throughout this project i will document my work by doing journals, videos and uploading videos.

Estimate the number of hours needed to complete ALL of the items on your to do list (page 2) including
your final product. You must document at least ten (10) fieldwork hours outside of class.

Explain how you will document each and every step for completing your product (journal, blog, video blog,
etc.). This must be a documented (10 entries minimum) that will be uploaded digitally. There will be
checks on this throughout the process.

I will create ha journal to keep track of my progress and perhaps any new information I discovered. Also I
will record my visit to a land fracking site.

What do you hope to learn during this process? Remember that this is not a research paper or project
but an experience.
Throughout this project i hope to learn safer alternatives to fracking. Also i hope to see the different
perspectives of people when it comes to land fracking. Perhaps the most important thing i hope to learn
from this experience is how fracking has affected people's lives.

How will this final product go outside of the realm of simply a benefit to you? How will your knowledge,
experience, creation, etc., benefit others?

This will help other people by informing them the dangers of land fracking some of them may not
know what land fracking is so this could be a wake call.
My To Do List
Below list the steps and timeline you will attempt to follow to complete your product. As you
complete the product, make additions or subtract steps as you go if and when necessary. Even though

part of your digital portfolio.
