Students will use research-based strategies on how to explore content knowledge in order to complete the project. "To identify similarities and differences in content, students should consider what they already know that will help them learn a new idea," (netc.org, 2005). Summarizing and note taking is a vital component of exploring content knowledge. Netc.org (2005) explains that students who can effectively summarize learn to synthesize information, a higher-order thinking skill which includes analyzing information, identifying key concepts, and defining extraneous information.

Students will collaborate amongst their groups in order to begin an abstinence and safe sex campaign for the school. For the campaign, each group can create posters, phamphlete using a web-based program, an infomercial or short movie highlighting the importance of remaining abstinent. Students will alos have the option to create a school-based blog where students can read information about being abstinent, read statics and consequences of being sexually active. The blog must also include a section where students can take an abstinence pledge. Another idea for the campaign is students having a school rally where they show slides through a projector highlighting important information. The campaign must include the statistics of high school students who are sexually active, the pregnancy rates and the statistics for high school students who had/have STD’s. The campaign must also explain why to remain abstinent or to practice safe sex. Students can use [|Youtube] or [|Google Video] to create their infomercials.

"For this weeks learning activities, each group will explore knowledge about the importance of being abstinence and use specific research-based strategies to help. There sre 12 [|research-based strategies]that can be used when performing research. Please refer to the following website [] to view the strategies." You will also use this week to develop a delivery method of the final project. Here are some campaign ideas that each group can use or you can use your own. Some form of technology must be sed when implementing your campaign."

Campaign Ideas:
 * creating visuals such as posters, banners, flyers, phamphlets using a [|design web-based program]
 * create a infomercial, skit or short movie using [|muvee.com] [|youtube.com], [|xtranormal.com]or another program.
 * creating a school-wide blog where students share information and personal experiences about how to remain abstinence. Also allowing students to take an abstinence plegged when entering the blog. Possible blog sites include [|blogtopsites.com], [|blogger.com], [|wordpress.com]
 * school rally showing slides that have information that increases awareness using an projector. Students can use [|slideshare], [|Kizoa.com] or another program.
