Remember that so far, your team has made some research about the country, the festivity and now we need to explain the festivity using images and videos from the Internet. Now, it is the turn to surf the Internet and look for some images (without copyright) and for some videos (with Creative Commons license) to illustrate your research. If you need some websites to look for images and videos, you can search them at:
Remember that these images/videos have to include a Creative Commons license. If you are not familiar with these licenses, check these websites:
WEBSITE STEP 5.
So, as a final mission of this project you are going to add some more images and videos of your festivity to your team website. When you finish the content of your team website, tell your teacher and he or she will be able to check that everything is correct.
Your final product for this mission will be adding some some videos and images to your website about your festivity. The 'Rubric to assess the project: Festivities around the World' will guide you to know how to do a great job.
Resources and guides for this mission:
- Contents of your website
-
Remember that your website must include information about:
- The country where the festivity your team has chosen happens.
- Information about what people usually do at your festivity.
- The most representative images and videos of that festivity.
- Ideas and tools
-
Some points you should consider to create a good website are:
- Clear information about the country and the festivity.
- Good and representative pictures and videos.
- Attractive design and three sections that can be clearly distinguished.
- The final post with your website link.
-
Your final product for this mission will be to create the post to include your website. These points can help you remember all the information we should include in your post.
- An explanation about the task for team has done and the link to your website.
- You can also embed the padlet that your teacher has composed with all your websites.
- The link to your Learning Diary.
- A short reflection about what you have learnt and how you have learnt it.
Don't forget to identify your post with the tag "Festivities around the World".
If you want, your teacher can spread your post using the Twitter account of the classroom. For that reason, you have to write down the tweet for the teacher. Remember:
- You can use up to 280 characters.
- Include the link to your post.
- Use the hashtag of the project: #EDIAfestivities
The 'Rubric to assess a tweet' will help you know how to do a great job.
Before posting your text, let's ask your colleagues to check your work and make suggestions, corrections. You have to do the same work with some of your mates' outcomes, too. Don't be afraid. Making mistakes is a good way to learn!
