Audience:You will be presenting your exhibit proposal to the Museum board hoping to be the one chosen to have their exhibit put into the museum. Situation:You are to present your exhibit in Washington D.C. in front of the Museum board and your fellow competitors who have also been invited to create an exhibit. Product/Presentation:You will display your exhibit on a wikispace using historical images and artifacts you feel best show periods of World War II. You will also create a GarageBand podcast describing each section of your exhibit and which is historically accurate and informative. Standards (criteria from both rubrics): Product criteria: Graphics/Images, Content/Accuracy, Layout, Creativity, Grammar/Description, Copyright. Presentation Criteria: Content, Preparedness, Speaks Clearly, Vocabulary, Evaluates peers, Listens to Other Presentations. || • Debate- Why did the world appease to Nazism and Fascism? • Comic Life- Illustrate the decisions made by the United States that would have lingering effects on the world once the war was over. iMovie- News cast describing why the United States does not want to go to war. -blogging- Timeline of major events and people in World War II and blog about each event Oral Presentation and PowerPoint- Progression of appeasement of Nazism and Fascism after WWI up to WWII. || • Reflection- Self assess themselves after each assignment they complete by using the rubrics I provide them and grading themselves according to the rubrics. • End of unit reflection on everything completed, how each student thought they did, and what they would change. || =Assessment Task Blue Print=

 * • Appeasement || • Lingering effects ||

//**Through what authentic performance task will students demonstrate understandings?**// You will also create a GarageBand podcast talking about each section of your wikispace exhibit. Remember, you must stay factually correct, for your exhibit could be the one selected to be put into our National History Museum. Be CREATIVE, and Good Luck!
 * //**Task Description:**// **(T)** ||
 * Congratulations, you have been asked by the board of the United States National History Museum in Washington D.C. to create an exhibit displaying the major parts and events of the United States and it allies road to victory in World War II. You must be creative in creating this exhibit because you will be competing against 20 more history buffs also asked to create an exhibit. You are to create a wikispace displaying your exhibit.

Also apart of the process is evaluating and commenting on your competitors exhibits through each others wikispaces. This part will be done on the day of the presentations to the Museum board. ||
