Follow the three steps below and the attached timeline/rubric to be successful 2. First Step: The design phase. Before you actually put marker to shower curtain, you will create a one-page mockup design of what you plan to do. This does not have to have all your information, it is more of a storyboard. The following are questions you need to address in your mockup: a. What is your overall theme? Think about your shower curtain as a big graphic organizer. What do you love to do? What are your interests? Use that to create a theme you can connect to our study of world history. b. How will you connect your material? How will you show changes, causation, and continuities? 3. Second Step: Once your design is approved, then you will begin creating your design on your shower curtain. Follow the due dates for when I will be checking your progress. This assignment will take a while to complete, so remember that a little work every day will help you complete it-don’t procrastinate, because your assignment won’t be as successful--and you will feel very stressed. 4. Third Step: When you’ve completed the assignment, you will explain your organization and choice of information on the shower curtain to me in a one-on-one presentation. You will need to be able to justify your decisions and answer any questions I should have about your interpretation of the assignment. 5. This is an individual review to help YOU review and learn the materials so that you can be successful on the Exam on May 16th. Plagiarism will not be accepted and furthermore, will hurt your score on the AP exam. ** Examples may be seen during tutorials for layout and depth/scope** If you are absent on a due date, you are responsible for emailing a photograph of those sections on your Shower Curtain to me.
