They address the intellectual, artistic, technological, and public speaking goals your group will incorporate into the project’s planning and presentation.Be sure to PLAN AHEAD as these presentations will occur regardless of any other major assignments assigned to you.THE STAKESYou will receive two test grades for your presentation: one for the depth of your knowledge and another for the creativeness and elegance of the presentation.DURATIONYour group’s presentation will last for two full class periods.DUE DATE:QUARTERTWOGroup 1: Nov. 17 and 18Group 2: Nov. 21 and 22QUARTERTHREEGroup 3: Jan. 19 and 20Group 4: Jan. 23 and 24QUARTERFOURGroup 5: Nov. 17 and 18PhilosophicalFocusGroup 1: MedievalGroup 2: RenaissanceGroup 3: RomanticGroup 4: VictorianGroup 5:ModernTextsGroup 1:Merchant of VeniceGroup 2:The InfernoGroup 3:A Tale of Two Cities (setting)Group 4: A Tale of Two Cities Group 5:West Side StoryINTELLECTUAL GOALYour group will conduct detailed research to understand and teaching the following thoroughly:The historical context (time period).The major factors that influenced the thinking of the time period.The influence of the time period on later Western thought and the arts.The philosophical purpose and importance of the time period’s aesthetics regarding FOUR of the following: fine art, sculpture, architecture, dance, mathematics, or music.How the beliefs of the time period are evident in the CONTENT and FORM of the quarter’s literature.

Some suggestions are to include some or all of the following:HumorMusicSound clipsGraphics such as charts, .ani, .jpeg, etc.Video clipsComic stripsEtc.Be sure to keep careful records of all sources you use!Your group is NOT required to use PowerPoint ® to assemble your presentation; however, it is an easy-to-use tool your group should at least consider.

TECHNOLOGICAL GOALYour group must ensure any and all technology it uses has been test-run several times for proficiency and efficiency. Technological mishaps waste class time and are completely unacceptable.PUBLIC SPEAKING GOALEach member of your group is responsible for presenting enthusiastically and clearly. You must take care to speak clearly and to maintain proper posture.Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse. The best way to ensure your presentation is fluid and free from mishaps is to set a due date for yourselves well in advance of the formal deadline in order to rehearse your presentation several times. During trial runs, you will be able to provide each other with feedback and reminders regarding public speaking skills.Taking pride in your appearance exudes confidence.The attire for each member is formal. Boy are required to wear a tie and slacks—a jacket is preferred if you have one. A pantsuit or dress is expected for girls. Pants and shirts must be ironed neatly.
