Review+Songs


 * You have your partner(s) and you have your unit topic, now here is the plan.**

1. Compile a list of terms that you think are the most confusing, least understood, most important for your unit. This list should have 20+/- terms 2. Define these terms clearly and concisely, not "textbook" definitions, but real world, and/or give examples. Come on, Kanye can do this, so can you. 3. Select a current or classic song that most people know the tune to. I would advise against spending a lot of time composing music for this, but if you want to beatbox a freestyle thing, that is fantastic. No, you cannot lipdub since you are writing psych lyrics to an existing song, you can have people other than yourselves singing. We would all love to hear your mom. Kevin, I don't know if Lady Gaga will agree to sing with you, but sure, you can try. 4. Put the terms and definitions into the song you have selected. THIS IS CHALLENGING!!! Please make the refrain useful, repeating AP Psych over and over might be catchy, but we hope that all of you know what class you are in. Repeating Erikson's stages of development? Now THAT is useful stuff. 5. You will create a video of whoever is going to perform the song/rap, or a slideshow of the terms/lyrics, or relevant images, and place it on youtube. Audio must be audible as that is the point of the assignment! Please type up the lyrics to your song into youtube with your video. Do not put your full names just in case you have a stalker, stick with initials. You are totally free to use any other method for getting your video online, but it must be shared with us as a live link, so be clever about it. Note: Please direct all tech related questions to helpdesk asap. Middle of the night before it is due questions to me about an app that I don't have just crack me up. You can figure out a work-around, you are a teenager, welcome to your century.


 * Suggested ways of creating this final product:**
 * have someone hold your iPad while you perform, upload it to youtube, share link on your class's page in the discussion section with the title of the post your chapter's name, not number.
 * Record your audio and lay it down on a google presentation. (you can go high or low tech on this, low tech is to use your phone or iPad to record a presentation while you are singing/rapping.
 * Possible apps or resources you can use: touchcast, imovie,

Content: Degree of accuracy, number of terms included (minimum 15 unless there is a REALLY compelling reason) Creativity: Dazzle us! You want your song to be useful, catchy, it should go viral! #appsychrocks (When we tweet it to Lady Gaga/Miley/Beyonce/Rhianna/Aretha she should be impressed and learn something too! Collaboration: assigned individually, you must pull your weight in order to earn full credit for being a team player. Strive to be the hardest worker in your group (in life this is also true). Everyone has skills, you can and will do this!
