Overview In your groups, you will explore the intersection between three UN Global Goals. Collect a minimum of five texts (representing a minimum of five text types); each text should discuss the intersection of at least two of your Global Goals, to form a full picture of how these issues impact or affect one another. (Know, Understand and Interpret)
Create a dynamic digital presentation to teach your classmates about the importance of your issues. In your discussion, address:
What are the text types? How can you tell, and what are the features of that text type?
How have you applied Marshall McLuhan Medium is the Message to your analysis and evaluation of the medium text types?
How did the writer use language in a unique or purposeful way to communicate their ideas? (Analysis and Evaluation)
Your final product must be dynamic, interesting, instructive, and digitally innovating. You should:
Define all three of your global issues independently
Use the UN website, but make the language accessible for your peers.
Substantively discuss the ways that each issue compounds or complicates the others
In what ways have you demonstrated that your various texts offer multiple perspectives, issues, and topics? How do the forms or genres impact their perspective and how the creators communicated it? How is “Medium is the Message” relevant here?
Who is affected by these intersections? What challenges do they face as a result?
Who / which organizations are attempting to solve this issue? What impact is their work having? What challenges are they facing? (Consider financial, political, environmental, etc)
How can you (and your classmates!) use this new knowledge to “think globally, act locally”?
How has this research helped you realize how you fit into this global community? In what ways, has your (family, community, school, country, etc) been helping or hurting these issues through actions or inactions?
