Russian+research+project

This is a bit of a different project, the goal is for you to practice a few skills. 1. Creating an argument statement. 2. Finding evidence to back yourself up 3. Creating a bibliography -we will talk about how to do an annotated bibliography this week as well.

Within your group you also have the challenge of determining how you want to present your argument. Discuss it with your group and reach a consensus. You may present it verbally, visually, in a presentation, through dance, whatever you like. My only rules are that ppts may have a maximum of 15 words per slide for student presentations and the more creativity the better the grade. See the below rubric.
