Welcome, Sophomores! For the next few weeks, you will be working on a culminating project for World Cultures II. Your group will choose a country from the list below and create a product using technology that shows your knowledge of that country and its involvement in the war. __ Countries :__ Italy Great Britain France Russia China Germany Japan Canada Australia __Items to include in your final product: __

See Mr. Weber

__Technology you should use for your final project (Power Point is not an option)__ ~Wikispace (like this)for posting/gathering all information ~Activstudio ~Google sites (on Google apps) ~[|voicethread.com -] Your entire group can comment either through audio or text about a picture, document, video, etc. This is one of the coolest web 2.0 sites out there ~prezi.com - the newest way to present information. See a sample here. ~[|mixbook.com] - use this to make a photo album or scrapbook of pictures, words, graphics. Like glogster, only it turns like a book.

Then - somewhere in the final project, you should include one or more of the following web 2.0 technologies:

storybird.com- like photostory, only you use artwork supplied on the site. [|blabberize] - you know this one from English - move the mouth on a picture and add your own voice [|glogster] - collage poster maker - you know this one. Might be good for the weapons [|animoto] - online video generator. You need pics. [|jog the web] - You can collect your sources from the web and have them all in one place to quickly browse through. Easy and fun to use. [|Here's one] I just made that includes the sites you see listed here. [|timetoast.com] - online timeline maker - really cool - collaborative. Could use this site to show the top ten events you choose by their dates. [|wordle]- this is a word collage maker. You would have to generate a list of words to use. If you want to use this one, see me (Mrs. Fisher)

You are also welcome to incorporate any of the following:
