Chapter 15 Facebook Project
The purpose of the project is to create a Facebook page on a historical figure from Chapter 15. You will have 2+ days of computer time to complete the research and construction of the page. Use this sheet to complete your research before you begin constructing the page and finding pictures. You will use Smart Board software to complete the project. The template is linked on Mr. Klein’s website (within the Unit 1 page). The resource list is also linked on the page. While you are working on your page, you may save it to your H: drive (school network). You may also save it on a flash drive or cloud storage (Google Docs, Skydrive, Drop Box, etc) so that you can work at home (Smart Board software is a free download for your home computer). When you are finished you will email the project to Mr. Klein and Mrs. Thompson.
You will also need to create a bibliography using Noodle Tools. For this project you will not need to cite the images. Instead you will document from where your factual information was taken (sources from our resource list).
