Assessment Context
MUlTI-MEDIA PROJECT
In everyday health the world is every changing. Your lifestyle today is very different from that of mine when I was a high school student ten years ago, and you can imagine how differently your life is than that of your parents. With the use of technology, you will be assigned a topic of your choice in the areas of mental, social or physical health. Using information that you research from credible sources on your topic, and the data you received from a professional expert that you interview in your area, you will teach the class in your area of health with a multi media project.
In leading the class you will provide them with information on the topic. You may do this with a video, slide show, debate scenario, mock trial, talk show, or any form of multi media that is approved by me. We as teachers are so intrigued by your level of knowledge and creativity in the world of technology, use your skills to provide us as a class with helpful and intriguing information on your topic.
