Getting Started

What will I be doing?

In this unit you will be working on 3 things: individual work, discussion boards, and in-class group work. Every day you will working on the iPads to navigate through the unit. One class you will be mostly working on the iPads to go through lessons which includes posting on a discussion board, watching videos, reading articles, taking quizzes, and making original creations. The next class, you will work on a discussion board and with your in class group to create your storyboard template and video. You will be able to complete your video entirely in class.

Explanation:

  • Individual- Work you complete on your own. This includes your Origin Theory Document and Quizzes.
  • Discussion Board- The area where you will discuss thoughts about the big bang based on the videos and readings you complete in each lesson. Each lesson begins with a discussion as Task 1 and ends with a cumulative task continuing the discussion. These groups are assigned.
  • Class Group- The group you will work with in class to create your video of your planetarium show. You will also complete your Storyboard Template with this group. These groups are assigned but you can look at your class' roster and tell me up to 3 people with whom you do not want to work (if any.)
