Update #2

I have discussed with my students the purpose of the project and they are majorly excited to be participating. They have opted to be in larger groups so they can delegate more responsibilities of the filmmaking process, however they have all agreed to take a large part in utilizing Web 2.0 to get views for their video as I have upped the view prize from $25 to $50. I will be meeting with the group leaders to hand out the concept, learning goal and the step by step activity and the process for utilizing Web 2.0. Assessment will occur immediately following their group submissions. If there are only two group submissions, the final deciding factor will be web views, which will make the Web 2.0 aspect that much more important. I anticipate 2 to 4 group submissions on time. Every student is excited to get started as they each love a friendly competition but more importanly have a yearning to learn as much as they possibly can.
