- Submitting a discussion post
During each field trip, your group will be required to find, document, and share some aspect of the environment. Using either a department provided Flip cam or a camera on your mobile device, record a short video of your finding and post it here.
Include a detailed description of your finding in the video itself, or in your post.
During the 2 weeks of discussion, respond to the other groups' postings (at least 2), linking what you are seeing to specific facts and theories that we have learned about.
You will be assessed on your group participation and discussion responses by the attached rubric.
- See the Field Trips page for more details.
- Sign-up for your group before joining us on the field trip if you haven't already.
- Use the course Calendar for scheduled locations and times.
