Research Project:
- Begin thinking about one specific topic or person from our World History standards (https://www.tn.gov/assets/entities/education/attachments/std_ss_world_history_geography.pdf) that you are interested in and will become an "exper"t in. You will spend some time researching this topic and taking notes, so if you were asked to "tell me about _(your topic)_ you could spend 5 minutes or so speaking. No -- I won't make you get up in front of the class to speak.
- Pick a specific topic (i.e. the Magna Carta, Henry Bessemer, Armenian genocide in Turkey, the Treaty of Versailles, Apartheid, the rise of ISIS, the life of Vladimir Putin, etc.). If you pick a topic that is too broad (i.e. World War II) you will never get a handle on the information available.
- We will turn your research projects into a PowerPoint presentation -- and maybe some more, depending on the time we can spend.
