Assignment Option Two: Make a Media Presentation Throughout this lesson you have explored how hydrophones work and what data they provide scientist. Using what you know, or additional information from a variety of sources, create a media piece (such as a poster, Prezi, PowerPoint, Glogster or other) that explores the following issue: Using graphic data, how would you explain how a hydrophone collects data? How would you demonstrate what can be learned from hydrophone data? Your presentation, should answer the following questions: What is a hydrophone and how does it record data? What have we learned using hydrophones? What are the advantages to using a hydrophone in a marine environment? What are some possible disadvantages?

Mostly covers key components and has key, but not all features of how data is collected. Some key elements of the technology are missing, including how data is collected. Major elements are missing, and how data is collected is not explained. Clearly explains what we have learned using hydrophones including at least three relevant examples. Mentions three or more relevant, clear examples that lead the reader to a better understanding of hydrophones. Mentions less than three relevant examples that help the reader shape a better understanding of hydrophones. Provides one example that might help the reader understand the hydrophone. Does not provide examples or examples are irrelevant and or confusing. Accurately discusses advantages and disadvantages. Clearly defines and addresses advantages and disadvantages of hydrophones.
