Presentation

Now that you have finished your "Challenges"...  it's time to put it all together, and share what you have learnt!

Please spend a few minutes investigating each of the presentation tools before you decide which format you'd like to use.
Time to put it all together! Learning about your faith and applying its teachings to real life is truly an essential part of "being the best man you can be..." You have learned about the 10 Commandments and the Beatitudes.

 You have investigated something the world says is "good" and thought about your perspective on that issue as a Christian.
Now, your group needs to put it all together...time to plan, prepare, present! As with previous challenges, there are some steps to complete before going to the new technology and having a play. In applying your learning to real life, we'd like you to consider the following:

How does your understanding of the 10 Commandments and the Beatitudes impact on the choices you make in becoming the "best man you can be"...in your relationships with
 * 1) Your self
 * 2) Others
 * 3) The world
 * 4) God

Your presentation must show your learning in these 4 areas, but before your start you need to plan. In your groups, reflect on these areas and what you have learnt. You can divide up who might be responsible for collecting information, a quote, song lyrics, a video clip, or even recording yourselves speaking. (No more than two video uploads please...) Your group needs to: Review the presentation formats below. Consider what will be the best format for you to bring together your understanding of the 10 Commandments, the Beatitudes, and how these impact on choices you make concerning good and evil. Make sure you watch the videos or investigate the websites - maybe you can split this up as a homework task, and each member comes to class end of week 9 ready to argue which format their group should use! You must then upload (PPT/Keynote) or place a link (to your Glog, Prezi, iMovie, Museum Box, Animoto) on the Year 9 wiki on the "Finished Presentations" page. Good luck - ask your teachers or classmates for help - or send me an email through wikispaces and I'll try to help that way!!!

Prezi =Prezi is a moving, dancing Powerpoint. You create it online, and can zoom in and out of text, photos and links.=

an online, interactive poster creator which lets you upload text, photos, and link to video... plus you get to play with colour and layout, very cool...!
Make sure you save your Glog in the "unfinished" version while you are still working on it. Once you have shown your teacher the final version, then save as final and give it a name (Please use your group name as the Glog name).

Powerpoint == an oldie but goodie... if you choose to use this for presentation,make sure you learn to jazz it up a bit by adding in transitions, animation, links to video, or overlay some music or other audio... challenge yourself! ==
