For your chosen infectious disease, you will make a PSA (A public services announcement is a commercial or advertisements that promotes programs, activities or services regarded as serving community interests.) using voicethread.com, http://www.xtranormal.com/ or http://prezi.com/ that informs your audience (your class) about the causes, occurrence, symptoms, and treatments and/or cures for the disease. Include a works cited (informal) list with your announcement.
The grading rubric is on the back of this page. Use it as a tool to guide your project.
You will have at least two days of in-class work time to complete this project, and I will try to give you notice the day before. You should, however, be prepared to work on your project at any time.
You will turn in a written PSA and turn in the video via email to Mrs. Goetz.
