In my project, I hope to answer the essential question, "Could the United States have done more to prevent the Holocaust?"
My three objectives are:
-Compare the varying perspective of victims, survivors, bystanders, rescuers, and perpetrators during the Holocaust.
-Assess the responses of the United States and other nations to the violation of human rights that occurred during the Holocaust and other genocides.
-Explain how World War 2 and the Holocaust led to the creation of international organizations (i.e., the United Nations) to protect human rights, and describe the subsequent impact of these organizations.
My three product ideas are a prezi, a poster, and a powerpoint.
I'm most leaning towards a Prezi. I'm thinking of making the background a swastika (the Nazi symbol), and putting my information on the tips. If I pursue the creation of a poster, I would probably stick a swastika in the middle of the poster, and have sections for each objective I will address. My last idea is to create a PowerPoint, which is my least favorite idea. I would just have generic slides, which wouldn't be very interesting to me.
I think you should make a prezi. It will allow you to show your ideas in a visually appealing way. Prezis are more interesting than powerpoints and you need it to be interesting.:D
ReplyDeleteI enjoy hearing you speak.
ReplyDeleteI like your preliminary idea of a swastika organizing your Prezi. I wonder, though, how you plan to address the objectives in answering the essential question you've selected. The essential question you've posted seems to address the ways the home front had to change to deal with the war while your objectives are Holocaust related. How do you plan to tie these ideas together? Are you interpreting the essential question in a different way? (It's fine if you are, but lay out what you're thinking in your reflections)
ReplyDeleteMs Roy, Isaiah and I considered this, and decided to change our essential question. I edited my blog post, stating the new question we are addressing.
