=Stage 2 Determine Acceptable Evidence.=

Role: You have been asked to research an STI and make a video about your findings. Audience: The target audience is movie viewers seeking more info on STI's. Situation: The challenge involves dealing with uninformed viewers. Product/Presentation: You will create an iMovie in order to educate movie viewers about STI's. Standards: Your work will be judged by Columbia Pictures (your peers). Your presentation will be judged based on the content (40%), audience (15%), enthusiasm (10%), time limit (5%), attractiveness (15%), and collaboration with peers (15%). Your product will be judged based on your organization (5%) and how well you addressed the type of STI (5%), transmission (20%), signs & symptoms (20%), treatment (25%), and prevention (25%). || • Dialogue: Class discussions on readings, films, blogs, etc. • Work Samples: Students will create a comic describing signs, symptoms and modes of transmission. Students will script and create a radio show where people call in and ask questions regarding myths and truths of STI's. Students will write a script imagining what they would say to their partner if they had an STI and post it on their wiki. Students will comment on each others blogs and give feedback. Students will comment on the social attitudes and issues presented using voice thread. Students will use Museum Box to collect information, videos, pics, about HIV/AIDS. Students will do a WebQuest in which they research the different ways to protect themselves. • Students will create an iMovie using the info they've learned in class and will asses their own work as well as the work of their peers. || • Students will blog about their reactions to each lesson. • Dramatizations: Students will act out scenarios of what to do if you have an STI, where you could go, what to tell your partner, etc. || =Assessment Task Blue Print=
 * Performance Task (Summary in G.R.A.S.P.S. form): **(T)** ||
 * Goal: The goal is to provide movie viewers with information on a specific STI.
 * Other Evidence (quizzes, test, prompts, observations, dialogues, work sample, etc.):**
 * Other Evidence **(OE)** ||
 * • Journal: Every few classes students will reflect on what we learned and how that can be applied to their lives (future or current). Journals will be shared with the teacher only.
 * Student Self-Assessment and Reflection**
 * Self-Assessment **(SA)** ||
 * • Pre-assessment to see what students already know about STI's.

//**What understandings/goals will be assessed through this task?**// **(G)** C1. Healthy Practices and Behaviors Students demonstrate healthy practices and or behaviors to maintain or improve the health of self and others in the prevention of STI's. ||
 * Understanding || Goal (MLR) ||
 * • There are common signs and symptoms, modes of transmission, forms of treatment, and ways to prevent STI's. || •C. Health Promotion and Risk Reduction

What criteria are implied in the standard(s) understanding(s) regardless of the task specifics? What qualities must student work demonstrate to signify that standards were met?
 * Big Idea || Big Idea ||
 * •Be aware of irregularities of the genito-urinary tract || •Know why it's important to have safe sex. ||

//**Through what authentic performance task will students demonstrate understandings?**//
 * Columbia Pictures is looking to release a special anniversary edition of RENT! They are looking to include informational videos on STI’s in the special features section of the DVD. They are asking various family planning clinics in the northeast to create a prototype video (it can be on a specific STI or STI’s in general). The clinic with the best prototype video will get the chance to work with Columbia Pictures to create these informational videos and will receive a grant of $100,00 for their clinic. The video, if on a specific STI, must include information like what kind of STI is it (Bacterial? Viral? Parasitic? Or fungal?), who is most at risk, how is it transmitted, what are the signs and symptoms, how is it treated, what dangers/complications are there if you don’t get treated, where can you get treatment, and how can you protect yourself. If on STI’s in general the video must include an explanation of what STI’s are, how they are transmitted, what signs and symptoms to look for, how are they treated/cured, who’s at risk, what to do if you think you have an STI, where to go get treatment and how to protect yourself. Make sure your information is clear and accurate. The reproductive health of millions of men and women may depend on the information you give them! Good luck! ||
