Historical Figure Project

Your first assignment/project for the class is to dig into Deaf Education History.  You will work with one or two other students to learn about individuals who have made significant contributions to the field of Deaf Education or have had a significant impact on the lives of Deaf individuals.

The key is then helping your classmates learn significant information about these individuals in a fun and engaging way!  You and your partner must select two individuals and no group may do the same person as another group.  You must notify me by Thursday, February 8th who you will study and share with us.  I'll keep an updated list here on the blog.

The sooner you choose with whom you are working, the sooner your group can decide who you want to study.  This folder in Blackboard has significant resources for you to use.  Previous semesters this was a different type of project so you can see some presentations students did.  This can give you an idea of WHO to do but not WHAT to do in terms of an activity.

We will talk more about the types of activities and WHAT to do in your activity in class.  The rubric you will use to help guide you in developing it or how it will be scored is in Blackboard.

Post any questions you have about this project here in the Comments and I'll be happy to answer them here.
