Day 15: Humanities, Tech, and Images

We will be exploring the purpose of art which is that artworks and artifacts will tell us about the people that made them or the times that they lived in.
You are beginning to research an historical community or nation. The results of your research will make use of the following technology and art projects:
  • a digital collage on your assigned nation
  • written results of your research
  • an in class presentation
  • a group research wiki
7th grade nations are from Colonial and Native American History, 1600's AD
6th grade nations are from 1400-1600 AD Asian history

The first step is to find 7-10 images that give us clues about how the people of your assigned nation lived. Keep track of your sources by recording the URL's that you found thepictures on in a google doc. Downloaded images must be stored on a student flash drive, or other storage system.
