AP Government & Politics Mastery Projects
Students will demonstrate mastery of Learning Objectives by creating a Mastery Product for each Unit. Students may create a product which addresses all Leaning Objectives for the Unit or the student may utilize multiple mediums. The Mastery Project is to explain the Learning Objectives, connect to relevant court cases and current events, utilize applicable vocabulary, and integrate technology at an AP level. The Mastery Product will be linked or embedded onto the student’s Weebly portfolio. This is an independent activity. Students may only work in groups up to three if they are creating a video in which they are acting or reporting. This production is to then be uploaded, linked, or embedded onto EACH student’s Weebly portfolio.
Possible Mastery Product ideas include: create an original video in which students act, sing, perform, or conduct a newscast, Google Docs Presentation, Prezi, Photostory, record an educreations explanation, create a game, create an animoto, Claymation production, annotated timeline, Thinglink, Touchcast production, online gallery display, create a TED video, and Pinterest. CREATIVITY will also be evaluated in the mastery project. Students may repeat a medium only once.
Products are due and to be posted on each student’s Weebly portfolio on the day of the unit exam.
