Students will be asked to share music other than the songs played in class, which too represent American ideals. They will be asked to write a short paper on how the song represents the ideals of America and why, which will be turned into me. The presentation will include playing the song and discussing shortly with the class why they think their song of choice represents the ideals of America. Also, the students will play the song for the entire class before presenting, by going on to YouTube to download the song (I will have loudspeakers set-up to the computer in the class, which will play the song selection for the class to hear).
My assessment will be to read their papers and listen to their presentations as an assessment for the project. In order to receive the grade of "+" the students must successfully download the song on Youtube to be played for class, and the song must be representative of ideals in America. My rubric for the assignment is listed below:
"+" grade will be given for a song that appropriately and clearly represents American ideals, and the student was able to use YouTube on their own to download the song on the computer to be played for the class during their presentation.
"check mark" will be give to students who find a song that mostly represents American ideals, and the student was able to use YouTube with little to no help to download the song on the computer to be able to be played for the class during their presentation.
"-" grade will be given to students who find a song that somewhat or does not represent American ideals, and the student was not able to download the song on YouTube on their own to be played for the class during their presentation.
