L1-L2 project Thing #15

Bob is also helping with another project for L1-L2 students. They just completed a science experiment with Wisconsin Fast Plants. It was a great experiment for ELL students, with a many observations and experiments. To conclude the project and provide an assessment I am having the students put some of the data into a spreadsheet then from there into a PowerPoint presentation with pictures and descriptions.

I have found the two classes to be very different in their capability. Scaling the task properly has been a greater challenge than I expected.

Bob has been a great help. The task of getting even a small class such as these onto a computer and clear on the task would have been impossible without him.

It is difficult to decide what informational elements to add to the presentation. I am thinking that it would be best for them to pull a clip down from Unitedstreaming relevant to growing plants or cycles and drop it in. But Powerpoint can get fussy when doing anything Quicktime related.
