Lionel,

Have you tried the Portfolio Activity? teachers can ask the
students to start putting together their work of the wee,
reflecting on what they did and learn, and organizing a
portfolio. The Portfolio can be shared with others (teachers
and other students) for comments.

FInally, the Portfolio can be saved as a PDF (or a movie,
not developed yet) for teachers to collect. After reviewing,
teachers may ask for individual objects to loo deeper.

I hope this helps!
