Assignment Summary

Congratulations! You have been chosen by your country to host a team from the United Nations Development Program who will be visiting to find a sustainable development project to fund. As host, you will:

~ Create a document sharing helpful information about your country,

~ Customize a Google MyMap, and

~ Suggest a project (like those we have seen in our films) for this team to focus on, and

~ Create a bibliography of all the sources you use during your research and creation.

Pre-research

1. Explore the United Nations Development Program. Learn more about the types of programs they fund as a part of their focus on Sustainable Development. Assignments for this will appear in the Classroom.

2. Choosing your country - Pick a country that you want to become the expert on and show us why. You will need to persuade Mrs. Wong and Mr. Goodwin that you have done some initial research into your country and why you believe it would be a good pick for this project. Learn more

3. Creating Travel Template - "Together" we will brainstorm a list of things it would be important for visitors to know in preparation to visit your country and understand its sustainable development needs. These questions will be the backbone of your assigned document. Assignments for this will appear in the Classroom.
