Students were organized into groups last week for our video project that continues through March 17th. Each project team will create a 2 minute iMovie that has a theme based on ecological principles that we are learning about this year in 7th grade science. The video clips that are on our server are professional quality and come from locales around the world. The tropical rainforest biome of Costa Rica, savannah biome of southern Africa and the ice biome of Antarctica are all represented in our video library.
Student teams have been working on a group research assignment that is due tomorrow. Everyone in the group should contribute to the research. This will count as a daily grade. All students are also responsible for finding an interesting and relevant periodical or journal article related to the project. As usual, write a summary and include the bibliographic citation in MLA.
Each student should have a copy of the rubric that will be used to grade the final project. It includes categories of: Scientific Thought, Theme/Message, Technical Expertise, Artistic Achievement/Overall Impact, and Teamwork.
