The four members of your team each have been
assigned four very specific roles. Click
on the corresponding buttons for task assignments
and role descriptions.
Your task is to complete an educational, interactive
website which instructs the
reader on a current issue related to media
literacy. You will need to determine as a group
which subtopic you will focus upon given
the research that you have each already
conducted. Your website must include
the following required components:
1. Active voice
2. An opening or introduction page which establishes the issue.
3. Thesis statement (Can be included on the opening page)
4. Support (with a minimum of three reasons) - Include on secondary
pages.
5. Conclusion page with a call to action
6. In-text documentation - Parenthetical citations
7. Works Cited Page
In addition, your web site must also incorporate the following features or capabilities:
1. At least one illustrative or decorative graphic which directly
relates to your topic
or specific point within a sub topic.
2. One to five “outside” links to relevant web sites (One link
must be included in your
“Call to Action”.)
3. Navigation links through your pages – all pages must link to the
index page.
4. Author(s) of the site (a pseudonym may be used with teacher
approval)
5. Creation and/or update dates on each page.
6. A functioning feedback link (e-mail link to author(s) or webmaster
7. Correct grammar and spelling
8. Links to works cited which are found on the Internet
The point of the web site is to communicate
the substance of your research paper without
posting the paper. You may utilize
portions of your paper, but you should not include
the entire contents of your paper – just
the essential information and arguments.
These need to be presented in a visually
appealing manner. Your use of space, text, and
graphics will be as essential to a good grade
as the content of your words.
