Notes:

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