End of Year "Student Choice"

Overview

Students were given the opportunity to work individually or in groups to create any type of project they desired, using any type of technology they wanted to. There were no specific tools or design elements that need to be used. The only criteria was that their finished product related to historical events that took place in the 20th Century.

Operation

Students decided whether they would work together or alone, and discussed what historical event they wanted to complete their project on. While discussing the technology mediums that would and could be used there was a few individuals who ended up switching groups or working alone. This was very interesting as the decisions were based on the tech tools more than the content. Students then had one week to complete their various projects to be displayed to the class on the last day of school.

  1. Love this. I have students who did similar work for a world religion class. One student had a hard time in class, but when I asked him to put any ideas to rap, he could do it. It is such a pleasure when you can give students work they thrive on and excel in. I just sent my student the link to your student's work.
