Subject: Pollution
Learner Outcomes:
Assessment: The teacher provides opportunities throughout the research process to conference with students. The teacher grades students using rubrics they have designed for creation of Powerpoint presentations, oral presentations, and research techniques.
Authentic Student Task: Students will be assigned one of the types of pollution. They will look up information about it in encyclopedias and CD-ROMs. They will give an oral report to the class about the top two causes of that type of pollution and two ways that have been used in the past to reduce that type of pollution.
Hook: Students know pollution is a problem in some places, so they will want to know more about it.
Student Direction: Students will choose what books and CD-ROMs to use when studying their assigned type of pollution.
Best Use of Technology: Students will use CD-ROMs to find out more information. They will use PowerPoint to make slides for their oral report to the class.
