School Train

Does school train accomplish the goal of students understanding metaphor?

Well, it is provocative. I would assess projects such as this by the effort, thoughtfulness, organization, knowledge of medium, coherency, and ultimately the statement made by the media. I would give this project a high score because I feel it fulfills the criteria. In addition, students not only understand metaphor, they understand:
  • Visual essay
  • Music and media
  • The role of self in expression
  • Team collaboration
  • Power of production and publishing
All of which is relevant to the world the students live and participate in.
