Classroom Considerations

  • Learners should be familiar with the research process or receive instruction in this area before beginning their projects

Pros

  • Project options include: writing an in-depth report or historical fiction piece, visiting a local mission, or creating a video or trifold presentation
  • Each option offers several bullet points of required points of information that students must include in their project

Cons

  • Listed requirements will need further specification and clarification (i.e. length requirements, explanation of subject-specific terms, etc.)
