 After the presentation, the teacher in charge should also provide about 2 key points from

members of the waiting team to take turns providing comments or questions about the
presenting team. This is a great opportunity for their social constructivism. Scores of
feedback and comments can be added to the content criterion.

NOTE: Rubrics and Score sheets are available in this folder.

IV. Task assigning

- Each group assigns specific tasks to all members, namely:

 1 project manager (manage the whole group’s activity)
 1 chief editor (assign and manage writing and reviewing tasks)
 1 chief graphic designer (assign and manage designing tasks)
 1 chief presenter (assign presenting and audio-making tasks)
 All members (contribute ideas, write drafts, present about the products)

- Each group creates a google drive folder for assigning tasks and submitting their
ideas/contributions. This folder should be shared with the class teacher so that the teacher
can check each member's contribution and monitor the project's progress.
 - The project manager can report problems or cases of uncooperative members directly in
the shared file for the teacher to consider.

- Suggested file for assigning tasks: See the file Task delegation Form in this folder.

V. Flipbook maker
- Students will create their flipbooks at: www.storyjumper.com
- On the website, teachers create classes and monitor each group’s progress.
- Teachers should examine the website carefully before the course starts.
