Assignment  ** Campaign for the Greatest Hero/Villain **

** Goal ** : Design and present a campaign for a dynamic hero/villain discussed this semester using Digital Storytelling Technology.

The re-examination of river valley and classical civilizations through the lens of important individuals will serve as a review for the midyear examination.

**Essential Question:** How did great individuals impact society with their achievements?

**Directions** ü Choose a partner with whom you work well. ü Select three individuals to research. Gather some background information on each individual. Write a brief, persuasive proposal for each of the three individuals. The student(s) who submit the most persuasive proposal will earn the opportunity to complete the project highlighting that individual. ü Research the background and achievements of your individual using the resources of the Library. ü Each campaign manager is required to submit a Notes Page with citations containing at least **three (3) sources**. One source must be print and one source must be electronic and one source should be a primary source. There will be two full days of research after which your notes and Works Consulted will be collected and assessed. Your research must **include the following information:** ü Design and submit an outline for your campaign pitch in the format of a Storyboard Worksheet (distributed in class). ü Create a three minute campaign speech using Digital Storytelling Technology. The speech should share your perspective as to what were the highlights in your hero/villain’s life and how his/her life has impacted us today. Like all campaign speeches, your goal is to persuade the public. What strategies will you use to get the class to realize that your hero/villain has had the most extensive impact on our lives? Use emotion, music, images, and powerful words in the campaign speech. Be creative and selective about the material you choose. Images should be used to represent the //impact// your individual had on society. ü Present your campaign to the class. Each manager is expected to present an equitable portion of the presentation. All group members must be prepared to respond to questions about any portion of your campaign. Dress appropriately. Props/Extras are permitted if they are appropriate and help you to reach your goal. ü The audience will take notes on the speeches. ü The class will vote for the most influential hero/villain. Winner in each class will earn a 10 point bonus.
