Students:

  • Internet-connected computer
  • Ability to communicate with their project group by video or phone (If applicable)

Advanced Preparation

Watch this video...

Which elaborates on the following:

  • Decide whether you want this activity to be group or individual work sessions or a hybrid of the two.
  • If you are planning to create groups, be prepared to assign students into groups and provide them a means to connect (whether via Google Classroom Video, etc.). We recommend group sizes of 3-5 students.
  • Decide upon a mode for students to share their work.
  • Select a reflection prompt from the list below for students to email you at the end of this activity:
    • How has your project template improved since last time?
    • Which sections of your project template do you need the most work on?
    • What is the biggest barrier in completing your project template?
