Final Assessment

Now that we have spent the last two weeks reading and studying texts surrounding the Holocaust, the next two weeks will be devoted to exploring modern day forms of genocide across the globe. By encouraging you to critically question the world around you, we ask that you take a stand to bring social awareness to the atrocities of genocide today. 

With this in mind, you will conduct research and gather evidence to create multi-media and multi-modal artifacts that illustrate your understanding of the genocide that you have chosen to learn more about. These artifacts must also bring awareness to your peers, community, etc. of this area of genocide. Please be aware that at least one artifact must utilize some form of technology or media.
