Directions: Planning for Final Project
Its time for the final project. For this one, youll have a ton of leeway. Youll have the chance to choose something you care about, and lean into your passion.
Heres the assignment: imagine you just became the professor of this course (congrats!). You want to create a 3-5 minute mini-lesson for your students, based on a movie of your choice.
Youre going to:
1. Pick a movie of your choice (let me know if you have trouble choosing one).
2. Identify something that you want your audience to understand about that movie.
3. Plan a mini-lesson to help them understand it.
4. Create that mini-lesson. You can choose the form. Here are some ideas:
Written essay
Podcast (I recommend Spotify for Podcasters)
7Taps Microlearning (This is what I use, if youre curious)
Video (I recommend Flipgrid)
Narrated PowerPoint
So, how is the schedule set up?
Week 12: Well create a plan and brainstorm
Week 13: Well create the mini-lessons.
