Class discussion leader activity

 Collectively, each group is responsible for the following:

Create a VoiceThread presentation, within which your group makes a PowerPoint and utilizes the audio or video function to present the key takeaways from your assigned chapters.

Presentations should cover the main ideas and key terminology from your assigned chapters. What do you find to be the most important information from that chapter? Focus primarily on the best practices chapter (chapters 3, 5 or 7) and use the examples/case studies chapter (chapters 4, 6 or 8) as supplementary material to highlight and apply what you learned. After watching your VoiceThread, we should have a good sense of the key ideas, lessons and terms from that chapter.

Throughout your presentation, pose 3-4 discussion questions for your classmates to discuss. Some questions should be factual, asking fellow students to summarize main point(s) of the readings, and others should be open-ended, asking students to share their interpretations and opinions of the topic as it was presented by the group.

Feel free to introduce resources or examples beyond what is in the textbook (though this is not required). Please cite any additional sources on the slides in APA format. For APA guidance see library resources.

Please treat this as a professional presentation – your preparation, familiarity with the subject and professionalism matter. There is no number of slides or time requirement; be thorough but remember that more doesn’t always equal better (pick what you think are the most important elements to highlight and explain).

Please create your VoiceThread in the appropriate week’s module in WorldClass by Wednesday at 5pm. This assignment is worth 20 points. You will be graded on your thoroughness of explanation, evidence of understanding the topic, professionalism, quality of discussion questions and organization/flow of the presentation.
