Master of Ceremonies?

This module is designed to meet the needs of gifted and high achieving students. Students using this module should be self-motivated and be comfortable using technology. This unit is non-linear and untimed. Some students may need to take more time than others to create their presentations, choosing to go into greater depth or design a more elaborate presentation. Timing and completion should be discussed with the student(s) at the conference session during “Planning and Goal setting.”

  1. Present students with the mock scenario, “Master of Ceremonies.”
  2. Discuss evaluation, standards, and possible presentation types.
  3. Show students the Curriculum Web and allow students to explore links.
