Project Description
For your unit in Dr. Grace's class, you have designed a performance task (Stage 2). In this class, you will create a sample of what your students might create for that performance task to demonstrate their learning and understanding from the unit. The parameters for this project are:


 * Your product is an example of what you hope your best student on a good day would produce as the performance task for your unit
 * Your product utilizes technology in a transformative way (Modification or Redefinition on the SAMR Model)
 * You created a rubric (from scratch or by modifying an existing one) that can be used to evaluate your product (you'll start this in Dr. Grace's class and get lots of feedback in both her class and this class)
 * Your own product (not the presentation), if graded using your product rubric (assuming it's a good rubric), would earn a Proficient or Outstanding grade
 * //(NOTE: You also created a rubric (from scratch or by modifying an existing one) that can be used to evaluate your student's presentation of that product (you'll start this in Dr. Grace's class and get lots of feedback on it in both classes) but your student sample is only of the product, not the presentation, and the presentation rubric is not involved in the assessment of your student sample)//

The student sample gives you an opportunity to experience and possibly refine the scope and expectations of the project, find resources that will be useful to your students, and determine what pre-requisite skills they will need to have prior to starting this project.

Additional resources

 * How to make a self-explanatory Web presence
 * Turning your project file into a product file
 * Places to upload a product file
 * Respecting Intellectual Property; where to find images, music, etc. with copyright permission for you to use
 * Citing sources--how tos and examples

Presentation Day
You will present your student sample to your colleagues in this class. You do not have to do the same presentation as you expect your students to give. You will not be graded in any way for your presentation, only for the product (the student sample itself).
 * bring a printout of both of your rubrics. Only the product rubric will be used for assessing your project, but you will receive feedback on both.
 * bring a printout of any text in your product.
 * bring a printout of the GRASPS for your unit from Dr. Grace's class (can be from the wiki or from the professional template)
 * you will first give your audience any necessary background information (including, what the audience role is in the presentation) and then present the product--you can choose if you want to role play your best student on a good day giving the presentation
