Social Movement Project Guidelines and Grading Rubric
Overview
You will create a poster, radio program, artwork, game, speech, video, song, performance, monologue, public presentation, or any other creative work (the product) to propose a social movement you may want to start. And you will write a short essay (150-200 words, 12 point font, double-spaced) to explain your project. You will upload your project as well as the essay to Moodle.
When you submit the product to Moodle, you may submit a file, a picture, a video, a link, or any other form. For instance, if it is a sculpture, photograph it, and submit the photo.
You can find sample projects on Moodle. Those samples are only to give you some ideas. Don't let them limit your creativity and imagination.
You will submit the product and the essay to Moodle by 11:59pm on May 9th, 2022
And by submitting your assignment, you grant permission to publicly present and share your product in class.
