In the “Need to Know” project, students collaborate to make a Google Site that focuses on a TED Ideas worth spreading issue. Through the process students learn to select, embed and present videos on their website, to create and embed a presentation slide show, to write a short summary of their project and embed all of these elements into a crafted website. The “Heroes Project” has students find an unsung hero and create a short film that documents their hero’s life. During the process, students must research the historical, social and political background of their subject, film the interview, then analyze and edit the film to produce the final documentary.
