World History

Due date for the research project is Tuesday (3/26).  The rubric was shared in Google Classroom, read aloud together, and discussed -- notice that this is a research skill score -- emphasis on the information.  The slideshow template is provided in Google Classroom -- we went through it with discussion; make this simple, clear, and straightforward...the purpose is to make it easy to share information with your classmates as we take our turns in class.  (The emphasis is on the information.)  It will be less awkward and you'll feel more confident if your slideshow follows the parameters put in the template for you (heavy on pictures and limit on words).  We'll discuss tomorrow tips and tricks for low-stress presenting, but know already right now that you WILL be allowed/encouraged to have cheat notes with you -- the slideshow is a visual for your listeners.  (You do NOT need to put all of your reminders in there; you will have cheat notes in your hand.)
