INTRODUCTION | INTRODUCTION | TASK | PROCESS | EVALUATION | RESOURCES


 * Tune In **
 * Investigate the issues - In this task you will explore resources connected to issues and become familiar with several of the issues. You will use discussion groups to discuss the issues and decide on one issue the team would like to investigate.
 * Brainstorm the question - You will brainstorm ideas, develop the big idea and identify relevant sub questions to help investigate this issue fully.

**Sort Through** In your groups you need to sort through your information. This needs to identify the factors involved with your issue. The stakeholders involved and the advantages and disavantages associated with these factors. A graphic organiser such as an issue map can help you organise your findings. See issue maps in the link below for more information on gfraphic organisers. []
 * Find Out **
 * Research your questions using a [|DataGrid.doc].
 * You need to identify at least 3 relevant issues from different types of secondary information. This includes government sites, educational sites, on-line newspapers, journals...
 * You may include extra sites that are not as relevant but you need to cross check information is correct.
 * Part A**

Below is a small sample of an issue map.
 * media type="custom" key="4503848"

Part B** Discuss the issue and develop a group stance on the issue. Discuss how you will get your group point of view across. What software types will you use to create your final presentation? What data types will you use? You should include at least 2-3 different data types i.e. text, sound, graphics and video. You will present your information as a collaborative effort using multimedia. Each member must have clearly identified tasks. You will need to submit the following for assessment;
 * a storyboard ([|StoryboardA3_double.doc]) of your design outlining the structure of your report and the software you intend to use.
 * a timeline of events that need to occur. You will be designted no more than 4 class lessons. (outlined on your designated wiki page)
 * a clear indication of each persons responsibilities and draft evidence of their work. (outlined on your designated wiki page)
 * you final visual representation.

The final representation does not need to be long but needs to clearly identify the issue, the advatages and disadvantages, the stakeholders involved and your team's stance.
