IB Presentation schedule:

THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION

Over the next week we will be dealing with primary sources. YOUR JOB is to present both these sources for what they are, but also to research and provide them in their Historical context. By doing so you will be able to respond to the opinions and facts within these sources. Be sure to cover the following in your presentations:
1. What is this document? (a paper, letter, interview) When was it produced and what lead to its production?
2. Who is the author of this document? What is their history? WHAT IS THEIR BIAS and WHAT CREATED THEIR BIAS?
3. What can we learn from this document?
4. What can we learn about this historical occurance from this document?

Please bring in an outline or your notes for us to look at while we listen to your presentation.
You will be assessed on both the factual and analytical content of your presentation, as well as the audience assesed on their invovlement in discussion, so make sure you are ALL prepared for class!
