Science Interview Project: How Technology Changed Daily Life Over 3 Generations

 Family Pictures are best–try to find photos that show the family home or apartment, the family cars, televisions, phones, microwaves, etc.

Here is a link to a Technology Over 3 Generations-2011 questionnaire for 7th or 8th grade science students to use if they choose to do the Winter Break Interview Projects for Science and History credit.
* * * * Directions * * * * *
PRINT OUT the Technology Over Three Generations Questionnaire (also pasted below) and use the questions and charts to interview yourself, a parent (or both parents for extra credit), and a grandparent (or two, three, or four grandparents– for extra credit). If you cannot interview a grandparent please interview another relative or family friend of the same generation. The goal is to interview 3 or 4 generations to see how technology has changed daily life. See “Day in a Life” schedules at end of questionnaire.
[Generation: the average period, generally considered to be thirty years, during which children are born and grow up, become adults, and begin to have children of their own.]
