Gold PSA: PSA Creation

18. Digital Storytelling

Completing Your PSA

Step 1. Check with your teacher to:

  • Identify a partner or small group to work with to complete a PSA. 
  • The amount of time you will have to work on your PSA.
  • If there is a rubric.

Step 2. You will copy, download, and share this document with the other(s) 18.Gold PSA Planning Document. This document can be used to plan your PSA and identify the media resources to use when creating your PSA. Remember to follow copyright rules.

Step 3. When done, arrange a time with your teacher to present and share your PSA with the class and/or wider audience.

Step 4. Provide constructive feedback while watching others' presentations (refer to the 18.Q4 Finalize It! Constructive Feedback for examples).

RUBRIC Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How can a rubric help me? It tells you exactly what to include and how well to do it to make your PSA awesome.

What does it do? A rubric breaks down your PSA project into different parts, like the message, its creativity, the technical quality, and the call to action. It shows you what your teacher thinks is most important, so you know where to focus your energy.

How does it help you get a better grade? Before you turn in your PSA, use the rubric to check if you've included everything you need. Did you make the message super clear? Is it engaging? Is the sound good? 

Can it help me do better? After you get your PSA back, the rubric can help you see what you did well and where you can improve next time. Maybe your message was great, but your sound wasn't so clear.

Check with your teacher about a Rubric for this assignment.
