HW Assignments Week of 11/11/13

Hello, USH Students:

For this week's HW, you will continue the work we will complete in class on the "Critical Period" Video Quest.   A link to the folder containing all of the information regarding the assignment has been sent to your school email.

***IMPORTANT***

• The videos for this assignment seem to work very well with portable devices, such as iPads, iPods, tablets, smartphones, etc.  When using your computers, you may have to download the files, in order to get them to work.  You can delete them when you're done.  
• All of the information regarding the video quest has been emailed to you.  All of the files should be in your "shared with me" google drive folder.  
• You will need your headphones in class, every day to complete this assignment. If you have a smartphone, tablet, etc., it is advised that you bring that technology with you to class. It is very important that everyone utilizes their Personal Education Device (PED) for this assignment.
  
  You must also include notes on each video clip.

Please note the criteria upon which you will be evaluated.   

This assignment will count for 4.0 grade points (a major exam).  Failure to complete the assignment timely will result in a ZERO grade.  Your evaluation will be based on

1.  The accuracy, detail, and depth of your answers.  Each question should contain an answer that is a MINIMUM of FIVE sentences (a brief paragraph).  

2.  ANALYSIS - Did you just copy information from the websites, videos, and presentations?  Or, did you put it into your own words, and explain WHY this information is important?  

3.  Outside Information - Did you bring in information from other sources, not discussed in the videos, or other resources

4.  APPEARANCE - Is your assignment neat, and organized?  Did you computer print the assignment, or write it in your best handwriting?  Did you staple all of the components together?  

5.  COMPLETION OF TASK - Did you answer ALL of the Questions?  Did you include the RUBRIC?  Did you have a parent review, and SIGN your rubric?

***IMPORTANT:  As the semester is ending very shortly, the assignment cannot be accepted after November 18th.  If you don't do the assignment, it's the same thing as getting a zero on a test***

UPDATE:  Here is a link to the entire video on SchoolTube.  




Here's the video on YouTube.   There's also an awesome app on Google Chrome called Video Notes, which will allow you to take notes while the video's playing.  Check it out!
