Monday Discussion

Friday-Tues 11/8-12

Now that you’ve picked an angle on Poe, you’re going to create a Google Slides presentation.  It should be 5-10 slides, following the guidelines I explain in class and through the rubric.

If you want, you can watch a short series of movies I made about ten years ago here.

Be sure to read the Presentation Rubric.

Here are some examples of good presentations

Mine on Inferno 10-11

One on Josef Stalin

Old Presentation Assignment  Look at it and see what topics could work for the presentation.

You can design your own topic.  Email me me what you want to do.
