Notes:
1. This is a project proposal only, make the necessary needed changes to fit your
 4

own objectives or plan.

2. You can have 1 to 2 weeks interval between the project making and symposium
to give your students time to prepare for the presentation.
3. This activity can still be done off line, with drawing and lettering and with
cartolina and coloring materials.
4. Canva was the prescribe web tool because it is user friendly but allow your
students who are advance in photo editing to use Photoshop.
5. Your students digital poster can be part of an MIL Awareness Campaign in your
school. As part of this campaign you can share your students digital poster on
Facebook but you have to discuss this with your supervisor or principal. There are
policies that might need to be considered like teachers are supposedly not allowed
to upload on line pictures of students who are minors without the consent of their
parents. Posters might have pictures or names of students where they can be
identified and might compromised their safety or be subjected to cyberbullying.
6. There is a PowerPoint presentation on this performance task but since this
proposal was created recently, there might be some inconsistencies. Make the
necessary changes in the presentation or in this project proposal. (PPT File Name:

Poster).
