toc//(NOTE: After you add your information to this page, delete the instructions in parenthesis, including this note, so that all that's left is the 4 headers and your information.)// =G.R.A.S.P.S= = = ( Feel free to copy and paste what you have on your wiki page for Dr. Grace for the RASPS portion. For the G--Goal, I need to know the academic goal (the big understanding(s) that you're going for) and the major facet/skill/product. For example, "Students will demonstrate an understanding of how volcanoes are formed by researching and presenting a persuasive argument as to their prediction of where the next volcano will erupt in the world.")

=Introduction= (Set the stage, give us any background info that we might need to know (but just a hint), this is your HOOK. Provide a segue to the Task . . . make your reader want to click to the next section. There should be nothing that sounds like school work in this section. Don't give away what's going to happen in the Task.)

=Task= (Tell the story of the Role, Audience, Setting, and Presentation. Be a story teller. Save any classroom-specific information for the Process. Build the scenario and stay in character. You can reference the Introduction but try not to duplicate the information that's in the Introduction.)

=Conclusion= (Tie everything the participants have done back to the Goal. Why did they go through all of this? Tie the scenario to the real world. Remind them of the "Big Idea" that they were supposed to gain from this, just in case they didn't make the connection on their own. Don't get preachy. If you ask a question here, it has to be rhetorical. No work or assignments should be included. Short is good.)
