Timeline+Project

(This file is the Project Description and Rubric packet you received in class.)

Some more directions:

1.) Find three GOOD sources to use for your subject. Specifically, look for sources that are scholarly or made by an organization that is devoted to the study of that person. For my George Washington example, I used wikipedia, whitehouse.gov, and biography.com. These sites are all dedicated to providing accurate information, and two of them work specifically on biographies. Don't use a fan page or a page that is obviously done by an amateur.

2.) Read your subject's biography on each of your sites. Doing this will allow you to get a good idea of who your subject is and help you to decide what events you should include in your timeline.

3.) Decide what events you should include in your timeline.

4.) Find pictures that correspond to your sentences.

5.) Create your project in Powerpoint.

6.) Upload your file to the wiki.

7.) Check out some of your classmates' work!
