Authentic+Assessment

I will try a project next year in which I assign groups then give each group a bacteria. They will create a photostory using digital photography and microphones to narrate. Each group will play the role of medical researcher and will discuss the bacteria and the disease it causes. They will discuss current treatments of that disease and will then promote their "new breakthrough" in the cure of this ailment. Each group will create a brochure for their new treatment and will present their project to the class.
