propaganda
Unit 2 Project
For this unit project, students will be encouraged to identify and
analyze various forms of propaganda. Our class will consider the use
of propaganda during the era of imperialism, World War I and the
Russian Revolution. Our assumption will be that propaganda, both
visual and written, has been used as a major tool of foreign policy and
government influence over societies. You must find three examples of
propaganda from these three historical time periods and produce an
additional example on your own. Your productions can look like or be
modeled after other pieces of media, but you must construct it with
aspects of your own creativity or originality (they can’t just be
copied). For the example that you create, you can select any
historical time period in the 20th century or any current topic in the
news. Of the four examples for this project, at least one must take the
form of a visual poster and at least one will be a written piece.
