Students will design and create a digital multimedia presentation demonstrating real-world application of conic sections according to the rubric at a minimum 80% performance level.
For this culminating module activity, students will design and create a digital multimedia presentation demonstrating real-world application of conic sections. Students will perform at a minimum 80% performance level using the scoring rubric shown below.
Students not attaining the minimum performance level will have the opportunity to continually revise their project until the desired performance level is met.
The multimedia presentation will be submitted digitally by attachment along with a self-assessment using the scoring rubric. The instructor-completed rubric and the student self-assessment using the rubric will serve as artifacts toward score mediation and future revisions. Ideally, this project could be set up as a workshop module in the moodle course management system, allowing for both instructor and peer evaluation of the project.
This culminating activity relies on a comfort level with graphics, video, and audio files in addition to their integration into a presentation. Since students may have difficulty handling certain aspects of these files, links to tutorials will be provided. This activity is highly susceptible to plagiarism and citation issues, therefore, journal prompts will guide students toward avoiding plagiarism and will provide the opportunity to address citation concerns. Journal prompts will also assist students in the planning of this presentation, thus guiding students toward the completion of their culminating project as they proceed through the module. These measures should ensure that plagiarism can be avoided.
