E-Venture/Lesson 5: Theatrical Advertisement Posters
My most recent E-Venture utilizes blogster as visual aid. My Theatre class is currently working on a project that explores the marketing of plays. Each student researched a modern production of the play that they would enjoy watching. After they submitted a rationale, they would create a poster that would entice others to see this production grounded in both their research and interest.
When I first assigned the project they sighed and groaned, "another project...I thought this was an elective.." Yet, they delved deep into their work after I showed the students a glogster tutorial (linked to the class web page). We watched the tutorial together. As we viewed the LCD projected tutorial, they worked on each step to create their posters, occasionally pausing to share what we learned. The entire room was silent except for the clicking of keys and an occasional, "Ms. Kenny this is cool..look at this..."
The elective consists of students with different intelligences and abilities, and I strive to differentiate projects/activities as much as possible. This activity further proves what I have been learning my Twenty-first Century Learners class: change +risk+effort= success.
I look forward to next class to experience their posters and post them to this blog.
