Project Description
|
As part of our Geography unit on Latin America, students in groups of three select a country in Latin America for which they will create a tourism commercial. The commercial is to be between 30 and 60 seconds in length, and should encourage people to visit the country. The commercial should address climate, activities to participate in, sights to see, and history if desired. This project allows the groups to find out more about a particular country and then share that with the class through their commercial.

Teacher Tips | I think the rubric and project were successful. Before assigning the project again, I might have the students view some tourism commercials and discuss them so they have a better picture in their minds when they begin the project.
Using RubiStar gave the students a better idea of what was expected, because they were able to see the rubric before they began the project.
