Groups will have one class period in the media center to discuss and research their assigned topic and one class day to organize the presentation and prepare visuals. Each group will decide how to best make its final presentation, but each and every student must participate productively. Visuals are expected to be of excellent quality. Each group member should research and discuss one example for the class.
