Large Webquests and Projects

Renaissance Webquest:

The Italian Renaissance was a wonderful time in history for the arts. You will have the opportunity to learn about the life and talents of an artist, scientist, or architect from this time in history. You will learn of how they were inspired in their work, the sacrifices that they were required to make, and how their work was received by the individuals of that time.

 

This site will help you to create a class presentation on an artist, scientist, or architect, which was a major influence during the Italian Renaissance.  It is also to help you develop your computer skills.  Be sure to read the entire Webquest before you begin and refer to it often while completing the assignment.

Genocide Webquest

“Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Whenever men or women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe."

-Elie Weisel
