First Christian Academy, Middle School technology and computers
Group Project, March-April, 2015.
Assignment value: 140 points (10 points for each week progress, plus 100 for the final project).
Get into groups of 4 people (3 or 5 with approval from me).
For this project, you’ll work in a group to accomplish a task using computers and technology. You’ll be graded on the quality of the group’s work, and the depth of the piece. Does it look like your group spent time on it? Whatever you choose to do, do it well! If the rest of your group says that you didn’t do much of the work on the project, don’t expect many points.
Ideas:
Create a video 3-5 minutes in length that promotes an idea or sells a product (real or fake).
Make a website that promotes an idea or sells a product (real or fake). Suggestion to use wordpress.com as the engine for the site.
Create a presentation (at least 10 pages) that promotes an idea or sells a product
Write a collaborative story (5-8 pages)
Create a skit that lasts 3-5 minutes and record it on the computer or phone. All group members play a part
Make a cook book with at least 10 recipes. Insert pictures and make it look great.
Create a game show, where the rest of the class tries to answer questions as the audience. Use the computer to show the questions or other creative parts.
You need to confirm what part each person in the group will be working on by next Wednesday, April 1, 2015. This is a turn in piece of paper you will create and turn into me at the beginning of class next Wednesday, April 1, 2015. No paper, no points next week for your entire group.
The project is due on Wednesday, April 22, 2015. Start working on it now. We will check on the progress that you’re making each week and you will receive a grade for each week of progress. You’ll show the project to the class as a group. Then the entire class will vote for best group for extra credit.
