This podcast will identify and describe several aspects of your project to share with parents and others. Each team member will be required to discuss a different area of your progress. You will also be required to pull out at least two concepts from the textbook.
- 3-5 minutes in length.
- You must include several aspects of your project -- a different one for each member of your team.
- You must include at least two concepts from the textbook.
- I am thinking that we are supposed to be presenting an overview of our project to the parents of our "students." We each need to talk about a different area, but not sure what that means... maybe what type of research we are having the students do? What lessons we will be having in the project? And this needs to include two concepts from the book. I don't know if that means to share the concepts directly or indirectly. This one has me a little confused as to what exactly is wanted. Do you guys have any ideas on the overall concept or idea? We need to get started on this.Thanks. Meg.
I'm a little confused as well. Let me review everything a little more carefully and do a little thinking on it... Not really sure how to do this one without meeting up. Can we record our sound files and send them to each other?
ReplyDeleteyes, the info says that we can individually do our part, one person needs to put it together into a complete unit and Kara has volunteered to do that.
ReplyDeleteI guess my understanding of this is that we're creating a podcast that introduces the project to parents and students. Each of us needs to share a major project or assignment. To tie in concepts from the book, I am wondering if we can reference the parts of the book that the assignments we are describing are relevant to. So we'd sort of be citing research that makes the assignments valid in the classroom. However, Sharon seems to like things to be very clear and straight forward, so maybe we just need to say the concepts directly. That just doesn't seem conducive to making a podcast suitable for classroom use.
DeleteSo as I see it, if each of us does a 1 minute segment on one assignment from the overall project that references a concept from the book, then Kara could put all of the segments together with an intro and conclusion and background music. What do you think?
