Group Project Presentations

We are coming to the end of our "saving lives with social media" project, which means is time to start organizing our presentations.  Each group member was responsible for various elements of your website, and thus will present what they have created.  I would like to hear about the process from all of you.  So, what did you make?  Why did you make it?  What impact does it have?  What did you learn during this project (not necessarily just content, but also skills)? And of course, How can we save lives/change the world with social media?

Each presentation will be anywhere from 5-10 minutes total (per group), depending on what you would like to share with the class.  I particularly would love to hear about unique ideas you had or innovative pieces you included in your process.  Please refrain from simply reading your information.  Summarize and explain instead.

After our presentations, we will complete peer and self evaluations, and I will come around to each of you to discuss your contributions and learning.  All three of these assessments will contribute to your final assessment for this project.  See the group presentation criteria and guidelines for more information on what was expected.

During my discussions with each of you, the rest of the class will be working on setting up their final project.  In order to avoid a massive amount of work at the end of the year, you will begin now, before we start Flash and Scratch.  Make sure you have a gmail account set up and we will go through blogger set up together this week.  Final project expectations will be discussed as a class.

Good luck with the final touches of your group project!  If you have any questions or concerns come see me ASAP.

Tech Reporters - Make sure you are on track with your time management!  If you need help, I will have my room open for FLEX Tuesday-Thursday this week (April 3-5).  Everyone welcome.
