The different scientists then work together at times to design original research proposals. I start them on it early in the study time-frame so they have time to establish that their reserach is indeed original. Can be as little as one day or over the course of two or more seeks as they work on other aspects of polar study. Peer review will take an other day. Then they should design a grant proposal using the form and questions as guides.

Students listen to the research proposals of their peers and come to a consensus about which one should be funded. Rubrics have been designed to facilitate this process. Grade is based upon the evaluations by students as well as the teacher. Biology Geology Oceanography Meteorology Glaciology 2. Names of Researchers 3.
