Human Impact Group Project

Your task is to produce a Google Slides presentation about your assigned topic. You will use your presentation to teach your classmates about your topic and to prepare them for a test. All of the requirements for the project are in the Human Impact Project Requirements sheet which is included below as an attachment. Your grade will be determined using the Google Slides Rubric which is also included below as an attachment. Finally, I have attached the topics and group members for each period. If you have questions that are not covered in the attachments, or if there is something that you are not sure of, please ask!

Your success will depend on large part on the quality of your research. As we have discussed in class, information on the internet ranges from excellent to useless. To get you started in the right direction, I have posted some science-based websites for each of the assigned topics. Please use these links to get started on your project. These links alone will not be sufficient; you will need to find additional information on your own. Please remember that your sources must be science-based. If you are not sure about a particular source, please email the URL (a URL is the complete address for a website) to me and I will let you know.
