I could present my facts on a PowerPoint (no more than one or two facts per slide), a poster, a scrapbook, etc. Fifteen facts would earn full points if they meet the requirements. Each fact should be appropriately illustrated. See the pink assignment and grading sheet.
You could also create a blog for this assignment.
Required for all formats:
15 facts -- each including informal citation
3 sources or more where you found your facts (If you use Wikipedia, you must have 4 sources.)
Works Cited
Tell where you found your images.
Quality work, not plagiarized, but edited well.
Make sure you have your Works Cited list in or with your project. You could place it on the back of your poster, on a last slide or slides on a PowerPoint, or on a separate page of your scrapbook.
Sample:
According to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, in their publication “The Holocaust: An Historical Summary,” the approximately nine million Jews murdered by the Nazis from 1933 to 1945, weren’t the only ones the Nazis persecuted and killed. They also murdered, persecuted, and enslaved Gypsies, mentally and physically disabled people, Soviet prisoners of war, communists, socialists, members of trade unions, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Poles and other people from Slavic nations, and
more.
On a separate page or slide, you'll have the works cited list. Use EasyBib or citationmachine to create your works cited entries.
Works Cited
"THE HOLOCAUST: An Historical Summary." BEYOND THE WALL OF REMEMBRANCE (1993): 5-10. Web. 19 Nov 2009.
Images
Slide 1: Image of bodies found at: http://www.americanvoiceinstitute.org/Remembering%20Auschwitz.htm (I also found the photo at several other sites.
Do not go to this site for information. It is very a very biased site -- anti-Palestinian, and is there for a current political agenda.)
Note: Notice that you are to use
informal citation for each fact. The bolded part in my fact above is the "informal citation" where I told where I got my information.
