Project #1

Reminders:

1.  The project is not the same as the presentation. The presentation is ONLY what you learned for 90 seconds (max 120 seconds) - partners have 180  to 240. Anyone who gets up and presents their project will get a zero for the presentation. 

   1. Ideas: What you learned about 

      1. the content

      2. doing a project 

      3. your morals 

      4. current society

2. Works cited 

• 1. separate page 

  2. 5 citations

  3. web citations must have the URL (which is different than MLA format) 

  4. no more than 2 citations should be web documents unless approved

3. Meet the exact requirements outlined in the rubric.  For your grade, nothing else matters.  That means you get no additional credit for being neat, for having a title, for having a clear thesis statement, or for having a solid conclusion.  Nothing is worth any points unless it is on the rubric.  THEREFORE, make sure you meet every requirement in the rubric. 

• 1. RECOMMENDATION: I highly recommend that you use the value words when listing and connecting your morals to the present.  

4. You need to do research on this topic, and you need to convey to your audience (Mr. O and the rest of the class) that you did that research.  Therefore, you need to tell us where you got your information!!!

• 1. Sites to use: 

     1. Google Scholars 

     2. Library Database
