Goal: To practice public communication of scientific concepts by creating something that current or future students of this course could use to review material.
Format: Student’s choice of a audio/visual medium (no essays! This is a Creative Challenge).
Examples include (but are not limited to):
Cartoon Strip
Dating Profile/Trading Cards
Magazine Cover
Meme
Original Song/Video
Podcast
Prezi
Storybook
StoryMap
TikTok
Twitter thread
Wiki page
Task: Create an original piece that demonstrates your understanding of one or more of the concepts from the course for your fellow students. This piece should original and created by you, contain accurate information, and help them learn or review a concept.
Guidance:
You must work alone and produce original content. Copying something created by another person is not acceptable and counts as plagiarism. You know I’m constantly looking for material and will know you cheated. Don’t risk failing the challenge (and facing the Academic Honesty Committee) over what is supposed to be a fun task. If you’d like permission to work together collaboratively on something like a video or podcast, please reach out to Prof Ayers for advance permission.
The piece should not include any profanity or hateful language (slurs or other racist, sexist, homophobic content).
The piece should convey accurate information pertaining to one or more concepts of the course.
Whatever you submit, you will need to submit a paragraph explanation of your piece and how it will help students learn or review a concept.
Information to include in your paragraph:
a) what concept you picked
b) what Unit it belongs in
c) How your piece will help students learn/review the material
5. If I like your piece, I could reach out to you after for permission to share it with future students of the course.
6. Get as creative as you like with this and have fun!
Challenge Steps:
1. Create your piece.
2. In the Optional Creative Challenge Gallery, insert or link your piece into a post, then write a short paragraph explaining your piece (see example below), include:
a) what concept you picked
b) what Unit it belongs in
