Project Requirements
Due date: Thursday, April 14th (all people with digital projects will submit them in class on block; all paper projects are due by lunch on 4.14)
All of day 1 brainstormed questions
Show me the following things in your final product:
- A clear explanation of your ‘break’ in history
- A list of events that would change if your ‘break’ occurred
- A description of how the event unfolded in real life (plus a citation for this information!)
- An explanation of why the events you mentioned would/would not have occurred
- 5 events must be changed (either happened or didn't happen because of your ‘break’ - this is only a minimum number!)
- Parenthetical citations for any relevant information you include in your descriptions of events
- You can cite by source number from your works cited page if you want to
- A works cited page
Some useful resources:
- Your textbook (I know, shocker. It's under the desks. It'll be useful here - it might be your best resource for this project!)
- This website. Check out the resources in the units from the last two years.
- Flow of history: a concise, flowchart-y way of looking at history.
- Wikipedia (this can't be your only source)
