How to sign up: This project will have a pre-requisite of participants who have only completed the Graffiti-land Web Quest. I think it would be best to have a link to the Graffiti-land WQ site … so the interested participants can complete the WQ first then have a link to sign-up for the VC sign-up. The deadline would be the middle of the winter quarter, allowing plenty of preparation time for the VC. Limited to only two classes per VC, because that would include four or five teams per class for presentations.

IP or ISDN? I am not sure about the type of connection (ISDN/H.320 schools or only IP/H.323) because it is not available to us yet.

Materials needed: PowerPoint, Smart-board, slides, or videos of the teams artworks.

Before the conference: Students will have successful completed the requirements found in the Graffiti-land WQ, in which the educators/facilitators have evaluated and reviewed.

On the day of the conference : Working as team specialist, the individual students will ask the other team participants and answer/present their answers to their question/guide sheets that led their team to their collaborative decision in how to create their artwork and how to present their persuasive thesis.

Activity: First students will present their artworks. Next, the individual team specialists will ask the other participating team the questions on the guide/question sheets. Finally, they will present their team’s persuasive thesis.
