This is your project, for your benefit. This is your personal summary of the course. Use / reuse your own work, your own comments on provided selected media, links provided by other students with your own comments, and/or original research you do now for this project. Resources referenced can be articles or media - your choice.


 * On your own Individual Project, list all your individual selections.  For each of the ten (10) topics in the course, provide links to resources that have been useful for understanding and advancing your knowledge of the course topic.


 * Note the source of each - Selected Media list, discussions, new searches.


 * Include a description of why you selected each resource. How does it relate to the module topic? What did it get you thinking about? What questions did it answer for you? Did it start an interesting discussion? Is it something that everyone needs to know? Did it make you smile? 2-3 sentences maximum.


 * Of the 2 or more you selected for each topic, indicate the one that you think was the BEST for this topic.


 * The Google docs pages must be SHARED - Anyone on the internet with this link can view. Submit only the document link.

Group work - Collaboration

As a group, from the all individual lists from the group, pick the two (2) "best" resource for each of the ten (10) course topics, and describe the criteria for selecting from your combined lists for each of the topics. Use the Group template - view only. Make a copy. Record your group selections.


 * In the Projects discussion, post all your group discussions as replies to your project Group discussion. This is a good way to keep the group communications organized and available to all. Review the resources lists and descriptions and comment in your group, adding your thoughts about the  selections and provide feedback to improve or enhance the Group Project page content for your group.


 * Group Projects page - Your group's project document is created as a collaboration. In your group's project  document, include all the best links and a description for how the "best" ones were chosen. Work out how you will select the Group list selections and add these selections and descriptions to the Group Project page for your group.  The Group Project page  should be neatly and consistently formatted.


 * Make sure that your information is correct, links work, descriptions are college-level writing.


 * When the group project page is ready for Peer Review, one person in the group posts a link to the Group Project document in 12. Peer Review module to the Peer review and feedback discussion topic for the group.
