I like how you offered an alternative assignment but it was similar and didn't stray away from the whole concept of the assingment.

This lesson is definitely a springboard for the teacher to add their own connections and outcomes to the product that is produced. Students left on their own would have a hard time understanding what the intended outcome(s) should be.
