planet<\/p>\n
The instruction is LA3-B,<\/p>\n
Write the part: for the jovian category you may choose any of the four such planets that exists in our solar system.<\/p>\n
This final LA (LA3-A or LA3-B) involves most of the material in
\nModule 4. However, as you’ve discovered the course builds on
\nprevious modules so you should use all the resources of the
\ncourse to write your best LA yet.
\nLA3-A
\nThis LA option requires your group to visit (virtually) any one of the
\nmany Jovian moons or dwarf planets in the solar system. Your first
\ndecision, as a group, is to decide which moon (or dwarf planet) to
\nexplore. Of course, it must have appealing characteristics and visiting
\nsuch a place as a researching astronomy cohort must have a scientific
\npurpose; this is not a vacation. Which body would you pick, and why?
\nWhat dangers would you face in exploring this moon or dwarf planet
\nand what precautions would you have to take for your visit (cite at least
\nthree dangers and concomitant precautions)? Design at least three
\nspecific experiments would you undertake and describe what you would
\nhope to accomplish in selecting and designing each experiment? Do not
\nlet the lack of current technology constrain your thinking; it is
\nacceptable to imagine experiments that are not yet possible, but you
\nwill have to describe any new technologies that your stretched mind
\nmight conceive.
\nLA3-I
\nFor this very last LA option you have been asked to write an article for a
\nspecial edition of National Geographic on the Solar System. The thrust
\nof the article is to compare (and contrast) the two types of planets
\nfound in our solar system, terrestrial and jovian. Although general in
\nnature you are being asked to select one planet of each type as a model
\nof that type. For instance, for terrestrials you could choose one of
\nMercury, Venus and Mars but not Earth, although you can certainly
\nmention Earth and discuss some of its features but the focus of the
\nterrestrial discussion must be on one of the other terrestrial planets.
\nFor the jovian category you may choose any of the four such planets
\nthat exist in our solar system. There are many properties to discuss
\n(geology, atmosphere, size, location, etc.) and certainly in a lsoo-word
\npresentation you will have to limit your choices but the final result
\nshould leave your readers with a true sense of the differences and
\nsimilarities of these two types of planets.
\nBy now you should be seeing a standard minimum for the length of
\nthese LAs; if you guessed about 1500 words, well, it was a good guess!!
\nAssigning the various responsibilities for each member of the group
\nshould be normal practice by now; the summarizer (writer) should be
\nsomeone who has not yet had that experience. i shall not provide a
\nGrading Rubric for this final LA; by now you should know what is
\nrequired to achieve a good grade.
\nLastly, I will remind you once again that all assignments must be
\nsubmitted in .doc or .rtf format so that they can be checked for
\nplagiarism. Failure to do this will result in an automatic grade one point
\nreduction and a zero overall if the submission is not corrected after
\nbeing informed of the improper format.\u2018
\nTitle your file LA3_lastname_student number. For example:
\nLA3_McDonald_123456789.doc and don\u2018t forget to include the names of
\nall of your group members in the submission! Submit it to the dropmx
\nbefore the deadline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
