Osborne High School Senior Project 2017- 2018
Capstone Product
Carefully choose a product or process that you can build or produce or a community-based service you could
provide. Answer these questions as you decide:
Does the research enhance the product? Is there a clear connection between the research topic and the product
/ process you want to produce?
Does the product / process represent significant amounts of time, effort and appropriate complexity? Does it go
beyond what you already know how to do?
Is the project something you will do outside of your regular class or co-curricular requirements? A product /
process that you produce for a career-technical student organization will not fulfill the Senior Project
requirements unless it goes substantially beyond the parameters of that product.
Will the product involve tangible evidence of your work – either something physical that can be seen and
touched, a community-based service that can be documented as beneficial or something that can be written,
produced, taped and presented?
