Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

Sometimes middle school students lack judgment. They post things on social media or in our classroom chats without thinking of the consequences. We need to provide them with opportunities to learn proper digital citizenship. In this lesson, students will complete a series of Personal Branding exercises which forces them to think about themselves and what messages they are sending both in person and when using social media. It helps them to show themselves in a positive light and no negative talk is allowed in the personal branding statement.
Students will create a personal brand using technology tools such as Google Documents, PowerPoint, Tinker CAD, and YouTube. See PPT of how the lesson would go here: https://wsdweb-my.sharepoint.com/:p:/g/personal/jconger_wsdweb_org/EX6iAN4Fd7BGvJFQ1MEufr4B0y7rBS-2F-SKg_IjunwCLg?rtime=-1sNX0Rr2Eg.
The successful student will be able to explain the meaning behind their 3D printed personal logo to their peers in an open dialogue. I prefer to do this as an ungraded lesson, usually being able to create a 3D item is enough motivation for students, but if grades are necessary, rubrics will be provided.
