Review: Think about making a stronger connection between the students and the topic. Rather than telling them that it is an exciting project, engage them through their senses and emotions and challenge them in an imaginative real-world scenario. Let them play real world roles. Try not to remind them that they are in a class doing a project.

Review: Second Review. I still find the Introduction is not making a personal connection with students as it should. It must seek their response in terms of experiences and or emotions. Make them interested in the topic. The current blurb is just like a lecture - it makes no connection. Your revised Task with roles. You have big groups. This will be hard to assess individual effort but if you have a plan then go ahead. "Experimentally confirming the water related problems of the village and suggesting the probable solutions to this problems." I suggest that you start off by inserting a first sentence that plants them in the scenario. e.g. You have been appointed to serve on a strategic planning team to...." I think your roles do provide differing perspectives - is there a Water Board? Think of people with vested interests, but try not to go above 5 roles - that is already a lot. I would remove: "In answering the above four questions, you ideally achieve the ultimate goal of...." "Experimentally confirming the water related problems of the village and suggesting the probable solutions to this problems." and "The Minister has provided you access to the national labs which may not have suffient materials."

Review: Your Task is much improved and fits the bill. You could add the role titles to each of the paragraphs of tasks. The + sign is a bit messy - try normal bullets.

Review: Good role definition. Points 1-4 before that should go in the Process section. I was hoping to see some resources to support the roles.

Review: Good work on the resources. I think you have also made use of the strengths of the Web by including video content.

Review: The assessment looks thorough although proportionally the communication may be receiving less attention. Also, take out petty things (like correct tense) and focus on skills of communication and understanding of the issue, which are more important. Good work.
