Final Project (note: this lesson is at least two 50-minute classes)

Day One

Step one: In the computer lab, students will individually visit TrackStar and look up track# 359287 and view several commercials for each link. After viewing at least three commercials answer the questions, write your response on a seperate sheet of paper.

 

Step two: In the classroom, in groups of four, choose a product to sell and write a commercial (as a script) to sell the product. Use this worksheet to write the commercial.

 

Day Two

Each group will take a turn in the hallway video-taping their commercial. After the commercial is filmed, the group will upload the video to Youtube and use Jumpcut to edit and post the commercial to the class wiki.

 

Day Three (extra fun!)

Each student will be supplied with monopoly money. The class will watch each video and take notes on what they liked and why. After watching all the videos, each students will be able to "buy" a/some products. They will have to state their reasons for deciding on the purchase(s) and the group with the most "sales" will get extra points on their project.

 

Here is the rubric for this assignment.
