CAMPAIGN PARAMETERS: The Labour Party has just won the majority of seats in the House of Commons. Now, the Labour Party's leader will become the next Prime Minister. The Labour Party is meeting to decide who to select as their leader and the next PM.
In groups, you will be campaign managers for Lady Macbeth's run for Prime Minister of Britain OR you will be campaign strategists for the opposing members.
Directions to get started with your campaign's group preparation
You will design an effective campaign including the following four components:
#1: Campaign - written speech in MLA format with proper in-text citations and works cited (literary criticism articles) - every student writes a speech; in a group, select the BEST speech in your group to present during the Convention
#2: Campaign - campaign commercial video - 1-2 group members are in charge of the video
#3: Campaign - visual (campaign posters, as well as bumper stickers or pin designs with five slogans) - 1-2 group members are in charge of the visuals
#4: Campaign - social media posts by candidate, candidate supporters and/or officials and regular citizens for/against candidate (twitter post template and instagram template) - 1-2 group members are in charge of the social media
GROUP v. INDIVIDUAL WORK
GROUP: As a group, you must work together to ensure creativity and a coherent message throughout all aspects of your campaign design. Everyone in the group should be familiar with all parts of the campaign and should have access to all four parts and be able to present it, if necessary. (Campaign materials should be uploaded to the Google Drive folder for this project -- create a subfolder for your group in the class folder)
INDIVIDUAL: Be sure to note your individual parts of the project. Although the entire group will work on the design of the campaign together, each individual will take responsibility for one part of the campaign.
Individual responsibilities - webquest, research (annotated bibliography), written speech
Group/Campaign responsibilities for each member - video (2), visual (1-2), social media (1-2)
