Project Guidelines Mr. Wallace Age of Exploration Project Guidelines Mr. Wallace

Background What situations existed in Europe during the 1300s- 1600s to cause the Europeans to explore the world like never before? Your task for this activity will be to thoroughly examine the life and explorations of an individual explorer. Rather than dwell on a chronology of an individual’s accomplishments, this activity will emphasize in-depth research of one explorer and their travels, including an investigation of the impact of exploration on the many countries and locations involved.

Task You will access at least three sources to gather information on one European explorer. You will record your research and create a poster / PowerPoint which displays the key information about your assigned explorer and their voyage(s). You and your classmates will present your projects to the class.

Information to Research You must locate the following information about your assigned explorer: Where was the explorer from originally (homeland)? For what country did he explore? Where did he explore? How did his exploration help his country? What affect did his discovery have on the area that he explored or discovered (native population, etc)? What year(s) did he explore? How long was his voyage? If more than one, how long did each voyage last?

Poster / PowerPoint Format At least three sources, one of which MUST be verified by the teacher. Although you may access Wikipedia to gain general information about your subject, this must NOT be the only source you use (you must verify information found here, with at least one other source) A works cited page (use citation tools under ‘Useful Resources’, then ‘Research Tools’ on historywithmrwallace.com) Answers to all research questions presented on poster / in PowerPoint A map showing starting point and areas that were explored A presentation that is neat, colorful, organized, and accurately informative

Schedule Friday, December 5, 2014: Monday, December 8, 2014: Tuesday, December 9, 2014: class & homework time devoted to research and/or poster/PowerPoint For Rubric – refer to the back of the hadout provided.
