TASK

Prepare to begin your journey into the sea. Your assignment is to explore each layer and the sea creatures that dwell there. You will then choose one sea creature from each layer, and prepare a Hypersudio presentation on these creatures to present to the class. Each member of your group will have a specific task to guide your learning adventure.

Navigator

Your task is to navigate through the web site as you visit each layer of the ocean. Be sure that you visit each link to learn about the creatures in each layer. You should keep a list of each website from which you take information or pictures. By clicking here you can access a list of links to websites with additional information and pictures.

Reseacher

After your group has chosen their sea creatures, your task is to locate and record information on these creatures. Print and use this form to record your information.

Photographer

Your job is to locate pictures of your sea creatures to use in your presentation. Copy and save these pictures into a file called "images".

Producer

When the research has been done, and the pictures have been collected, your task is to produce your "movie". Start with a title slide, which will include the names of your group members. Follow this with one slide for each of the sea creatures you have researched. On your fifth slide you should compare and contrast the three creatures you have featured. Explain how they are different and how they are the same. Last, you should include one more slide to list your credits - the websites you used to find your information and pictures.

Editor

To complete your assignment, you will view the Hyperstudio presentation and "fine-tune" it. Check spelling, grammar, and appearance of each slide. Make any necessary changes. Go to the evaluation form to check that you have met all of the requirements for this project.
