Storyboard

= Storyboard Ideas = **Audience:** Middle school (high school as well)

**Inquiry topic:** ISP- How your feelings, thoughts and actions influence your search process " Your Journey Begins with 6 steps. . ." **Rationale:** What is ISP? Why use ISP? Who developed it? Who uses it? How will it help me? (Include this in opening of Prezi)

**Relevance:** Besides the example topic used to preswent ISP, also mention **school inquiry examples** that middle students can relate to (Science Fair project research, role and value of systems in the body, Asian culture (or any other culture) and its influence on modern society) as well as **personal examples** that will be relevant to the student (how to find a summer job, where to go on vacation, how to buy a ...phone, car, computer, electronics)

Favorite Sample Projects: Summer Activities to Explore Your Interests (like Science camp at NASA, dance or performing arts programs, etc.) & Science Fair (I know that is a topic that is used often but the kids need so much help with it!)  **Example Topic idea for this presentation:** Hate Groups and Bullying (tie particularly to study of the Holocaust in Social Studies and/or English Language Arts novel)

**Persuasion:** Use web 2.0 technology tools/sounds/images and clearly explain why the ISP process will be useful for life (see relevance)


 * Web2.0: **
 * Prezi: [|http://prezi.com/o2ruogec835p/persuasive-presentation/]
 * FOR EDITING ONLY: []
 * imbed a video clip from "The Wave" or another relevant video if we decide to go this direction
 * Could also imbed links to particularly poignant articles or websites
 * A Wordle of hate groups would be easy, too.


 * Objectives of the example project idea: **
 * 1) Research data on Holocaust beginnings and outcomes using databases and print resources in library.
 * 2) Look at modern examples of hate groups by assigning student groups particyular hate groups to research in current event magazines, newspapers, etc available on databases and print resources in the library.
 * 3) Connect hate group and Holocaust mentalities with current bullying issues in school and/or community .Could require each student group to come up with a plan/specific project for combating bullying in the school or community setting.


 * Storyboard ideas: **
 * On the Prezi, break down to the three parts of the project to fit the six steps in ISP since the project starts with just data research on Holocaust and then hate groups and moves toward application to student's school/community setting and then synthesis of an actual action plan. Could have six steps of ISP as the "groupings"
 * AND/OR could have a chart with 3 columns showing thoughts, feelings, actions that the Prezi zooms over to on each of the six stages.
 * Another idea: Use a huge Nazi swastika as the background on the Prezi and then arrange the "groupings" at the ends of the arms of the swastika or in the white open spaces. (I am just trying to picture a really powerful organizational image for the whole project. Swastika seems pretty stunning.

Chart below adapted from Dr. Moreillon's example on Wiki Wonderland:
 * ** What? ** || ** Images/Text ** || ** Sound/web 2.0 tool ** || ** Relevance ** ||
 * Hate Groups and bullying || * use black and white line drawings of footprints like old dance instructional diagrams where the steps are numbered [[image:Waltz_diagram.gif width="99" height="139" align="center"]]

>
 * [] with musical symbols to show how you are feeling about your progress can tell you something about where you are in the process


 * Perhaps the example can include a picture of a swastika along with a link "The Wave" as part of the Initiation step.
 * The Wordle of hate groups and bullying would go great with Selection.
 * Shoe prints for extra decorations.
 * Peace sign for the Presentation. || * perhaps we could use a little of Ciara's "One-Two Step" || ﻿Introduce ISP as described in Rationale above.

Inquiry Steps (based on hate groups/bullying example): initiation, selection, exploration, formulation, collection, and presentation. From []
 * //Initiation//, when a person first becomes aware of a lack of knowledge or understanding and feelings of uncertainty and apprehension are common.
 * //Selection,// when a general area, topic, or problem is identified and initial uncertainty often gives way to a brief sense of optimism and a readiness to begin the search.
 * //Exploration,//when inconsistent, incompatible information is encountered and uncertainty, confusion, and doubt frequently increase and people find themselves “in the dip” of confidence.
 * //Formulation,// when a focused perspective is formed and uncertainty diminishes as confidence begins to increase.
 * //Collection,//when information pertinent to the focused perspective is gathered and uncertainty subsides as interest and involvement deepens.
 * //Presentation,// when the search is completed with a new understanding enabling the person to explain his or her learning to others or in someway put the learning to use.

Initiation: Why do people bully others? What examples exist of organized bullying in your school, community, or even in history?

Selection: What are similarities between historical hate groups and bullying in my school and community?

Exploration: What do I already know about hate groups and bullying? What do I need to know about hate groups and bullying? What parts of this search are becoming confusing or frustrating?

Formulation: Task: What am I trying to accomplish on this topic? Time: How much time do I have? Interest: What do I find personally interesting about hate groups and bullying? Availability: What information is available to me regarding hate groups and bullying?

Collection: If my topic now is "How can an understanding of hate groups lead to prevention of bullying in my school and community," what resources will I use to gather relevant and reliable information?

Presentation: How will I put this understanding of bullying to use? What practical measures can I take in my school and community to prevent bullying? How will I share this knowledge and my plan with others? Do I feel successful or frustrated with this topic? ||

** Important Notes from the Discussion Board: **

J.Moreillon 3/2: "//The section you have quoted is in the "Content: Inquiry or Research Process Models" criterion on the rubric.//

// So, "The ORIGINAL presentation includes a rationale and information about the inquiry/research process presented." // // What is a rationale for using the process? In other words, why should I bother to learn and use it? Also, share some information about it. Who developed it? Who else uses it? How does it help learners? and so on... //

// "The steps learners engage in are clearly communicated." //

// What are the steps in the process? For example, describe the six steps in the Big6 process. //

// Please read the rubric left to right. Each description is related to the category it describes. In this case, the "Inquiry or Research Process Models." //

J. Moreillon 3/3:

// "I am thinking that repeating all of your steps for each sample project would be redundant. Do you agree? // // As long as you have provided the steps and have given one example that shows each step, then your audience should be able to transfer that information to the additional sample projects you provide. // // Yes? I think descriptions of the additional sample projects should be sufficient." //

(We do not need to describe all the steps of the ISP process for every sample/example project we suggest. Only the main one.)

A. 2.3 Rubric: The partners align the stated audience, content and the presentation tool with the audience. There is an unambiguous and strong invitation for classroom-library collaboration, or students are aware of the role of the library program in their success. {As we both expressed in discussion, ISP needs to be the star NOT the assignment (though it is pretty great).}
