OVERVIEW:
Description of project/unit/lesson. Try to construct an overview,
for an audience including students and parents, that provides a
clear outline of activities, expectations, and outcomes. The
overview should not be detailed to the point that it overlaps into
other sections of the Learning Module Design. Just highlight
the key ingredients and try to generate excitement about getting
started. Encourage support from parents and let them know
that examples of student work will be published in the Portfolio
section. |
Past
student artifacts can be meaningful examples, helping students understand
opportunities and expectations for different tasks.
Consider
constructing the overview in letter or outline form. It should be
a printable document that you go over with students and sent home to communicate
with parents at the start of the project/unit. Linking it to the Learning
Module Toolbar will allow students or parents to access the document or
obtain an additional copy if the original printed copy is lost.

Tools:
Microsoft Word, Flashpaper, PDF. |
