__For all assignments submitted by email please put in the subject line your name. Thank you.__
=** __From now on, all assignment will go from top to bottom instead of bottom to top!!!__ **= = = =Assignment #9 - 3 part project= For this week, you will go on a project based pedagogy design that is based upon 21st century learning. There will be stringent guidelines to facilitate your work, but within those guidelines, you will have a lot of freedom to research and find what is interesting to you. As we have just got wi-fi at the school, I would also like to hybridize this into the experiment so we can really begin 21st digital learning in the classroom.

The experiment and grades are split into these 3 parts:

=1. Major project: = **__Thurs and Fri__** are presentation days for duo or trio personalized topics. Pick something that interests you. On Monday, there will be a sign up on the board under the topic headings of the chapter. Full sign up and registration for the presentations must be done on Monday. There can be a few groups under each heading, but each duo/trio will have to then pick a very different detail of the same topic. For example:

There are lots of things to choose from.
Marking Guide 10 marks for the overall presentation - such as engaging the audience and sustaining interest as well as including creativity and uniqueness. 10 marks for the quality of the information 10 marks the quality of the presentation, for the being in the 3-4 minute range

=2. Mini-project = **__Wed__** is also a presentation day but it is the duo/trio summarizing the chapter for Mr. West in a 2-3 min presentation. This is done only with the teacher. I will call each duo/trio up, one at a time to present their best case for the chapter.

You will not be able to use your textbook - nor will you be able to read straight off of a sheet of paper. You can have notes, but you reading them directly off of the page will get you low marks.

In this section you should complete: 1. Reading: Pg. 131 - 143

You must cover all topics from these pages
====(Intro, The Cold War Begins, Cold War at Home, NATO and Warsaw, Canada's commitment to NATO, The Issue of North American Defence + Civil Defence, Planning for Peace, The Korean Conflict, The Suez Crisis, Cuban Missle Crisis, The Nuclear Issue in Canada)==== 2.

From Wikipedia:
==== **Propaganda** is a form of communication that is aimed at [|influencing] the attitude of a community toward some cause or position so as to benefit oneself or one's group. ====
