History 12 Summative Learning Project:

Create a Youtube video that summarizes your learning for this course. You may work individually or in groups as large as 4. The idea is to create an artefact that connects the different units, time periods and themes that you explored in this course.  Your final product must be uploaded to Youtube and posted to your class webpages.  How you produce your video is up to you, you may use still photos, remix or reuse archival footage, create your own scenes, or integrate slides from presentation software.  The final goal is to produce an original and creative work that summarizes and connects everything you have learned in this course.
