At the end of the course, my students create collaborative multimedia projects about topics they want to promote awareness about. They choose their own learning, work in collaborative, cooperative groups to research, and they get to choose how to display their project (iMovie, webpage, Prezi, Keynote, etc.). The kids would like to have an audience to share their projects with and to interact through a videoconference. Our time line is strict due to layout of course and the school year ending.
