Project Purpose: To understand the difference between Cause/Effect Relationships and Correlations. To understand how and why major events in history are connected and intertwined (think yarn activity!). To research a major event from U.S. history in order to understand why it is significant and how it relates to other major events. To understand features of a feature article and podcast and to be able to create a feature article or podcast about your major event in history.
Project Requirements:To present the 5Ws of your major event to the class. To write/peer edit/revise a feature article or podcast. To have at least three drafts in your Writing Portfolio. To present a polished version of your feature article or podcast on Media Night, as well as posting it online to our Team Featurecast from the Past web page (made by James).
Two challenges that I Faced during this project was first of all, I learned what cause the Vietnam War, because that is a topic a lot of people do not know about, I also learned how to use illustrator, the program because I have never used this program before, and Mr. Rodrigo taught us a lot of cool tricks and tips on what we should do on our feature article.
A challenge that I faced during this process is finding a reliable, and informative site, to find information on. A lot of sites, either didn't have what I was looking for, had falsen information, or were to complicated to understand. So finding a reliable source I could understand was a tough challenge.
How this relates to the real world is that, for many years, and still today, conflict has been going on due to racism, religiouse beliefs, or different opinions, In the Vietnam War, the U.S and Vietnam fought because they had different opinions on communism.
