They will complete a research guide directing their search. As they are searching they will gather images that will be used in their music video report. These images will be imported into iPhoto. Using Garage Band, the group must record an introduction in Spanish for their report which identifies who they are, the title of the song and the artist and tells the audience something about what they are about to hear. This audio file will be exported as an MP3 file and imported into iTunes to be used in the final product. Finally, using iMovie, iPhoto and iTunes the group will create their music video report. The entire song must be used creating a video with still photos, clip art, and transitions. The final product will be saved as .mov file to be viewed in Quicktime. The final product will be posted on the class blog where students can view it on their laptops or on their iPods. Viewing and evaluating each group’s video report will be one part of the assessment for the unit. Understanding and knowing the content of the report will be the second part of the assessment. ||
