Project Title: tower Construction

Project Start Date: October 31

Project Completion Date: May 15

Mentor’s Name: Mrs. Browning, Lem Ellis, Daphne Ellis

Brief Description: I am going to attempt to construct a computer tower

Overview of Project Proposal

1) Project Objective: My project is about building a computer tower for my family. My families experience with computers is very bad. We have had 8 computers that I remember, and I would like to accept the challenge to build the longest and best computer we have had so far.

2) Project Rationale: The reason I would like to construct a computer tower is so me and my family can have a computer all of us can share and so we won’t always use my macbookpro and download stuff onto my school laptop. Personally I don’t find my project significant to those around me, I think the only people it will benefit would be my family, but to them it could be pretty significance.
