Assign different students or groups of students different bright papers to read in order to glean bits of material worth sharing. Give time for mini presentations, creation of conventional or multimedia projects, create a wiki of essential information and more. Have students make a multimedia presentation using one of the many TeachersFirst Edge tools <a href="/content/edge.cfm?c=16">reviewed here</a>. Assign a food journal to students to maintain and have other students analyze the diaries and make suggestions for improvements and deficiencies.
