Final task
The Minister for Health wishes to launch a national campaign about how new technologies could help prevent and/or cure Alzheimer’s disease.
You belong to their Cabinet and your task is to make a summary on this subject for the Minister’s information.
As the Minister does not have so much time to read any paper (guess why!), your summary should be in the form of a 5-minute video, inspired by a popular [1] scientific show (Bill Nye the Science Guy / Brainiac: Science Abuse / C’est pas sorcier / etc.).
Your video is to hand in on Google Classroom.
