Standards:
As a result of successfully completing this unit, students will be able to:
1. Demonstrate effective (based on rubric criteria) oral communication skills by sharing their
movie review with peers through a digital tool such as voice thread. [Related to driving
question 1]
As a result of successfully completing this unit, students will be able to incorporate the
following ISTE Standards for Students as part of their learning:
ISTE Standards-S 2: Digital citizen Students recognize the rights, responsibilities and
opportunities of living in an interconnected digital world, and they act and model in ways that are
safe, legal and ethical.
ISTE Standards-S 3: Knowledge Constructor Students critically curate a variety of resources
using digital tools to construct knowledge, produce creative artifacts and make meaningful learning
experiences for themselves and others.
Term Project:
This is a group assignment (i.e., groups of 3 randomly assigned). Students will find their group
members on Canvas along with their group topic (randomly assigned weekly topics). Each group
will select two learning objectives from their assigned topic and create a study tool, and a digital
story based on the introduction and clinical correlation. The audience of the digital product will be
students’ fellow peers unless students request to share their work on the weebly site (i.e., public).
Blog reflection:
Each student will write a brief (one or two paragraphs) personal reflection of their learning and
experience during the movie review day (week 10) on the weebly term project site. This should be
a positive reflection, including the most memorable moment. What students could have done
differently to improve their end product and/or any potential problems with technology for future
use (that could benefit future students). Blog reflection will be posted on the weebly site (i.e,
public) in order to give students an opportunity to voice their opinions in a public space.
Resources
Educator Preparation: Create a class weebly site and provide learners with the URL.
Briefly explain how the resources, tools, and tutorials may be used to differentiate content
or process for learners:
o The movie review activity will be a group summative assessment (term project).
o The use of voicethread aid in students use of creativity and therefore higher level of
learning and critical thinking. Voicethread would be recommended as the digital story tool,
but other options will be available to students.
Instructional Plan
Management: BI 300 Stress Physiology will be a lecture based course for undergraduates that are
interested in the fundamental concepts of stress physiology. The class will meet twice per week
(Mondays and Wednesdays) for 80 minutes each.
The movie review day will be a closure event during the last class period (during week 10).
Students will write a blog reflection on their experience with the movie review day that will provide
instructor feedback for future use. It will also create an opportunity for students to voice their
experience to the public to practice being a good citizen.
