Final Assignment

Instructions/Rubric
For this assignment each student will be split up into groups of my choosing, and each group
will be responsible for creating a dramatization of an event that happened during the First
World War or the lead up to the First World War.

The video should be 5-10 minutes in length.

Needs to highlight actual things said or done during whichever event the group has.
Historically Accurate.
All group members must make an appearance in the video and say or do something if
not the group will be penalized points.
Upload the video to our class YouTube Chanel and make the video public so everyone in
class is able to watch it.
Type out a script.
Edit the video properly with tools like iMovie.
Appropriate clothing and props must be used.
Extra Credit: If you can manage to make the video funny in some way please do so the
funnier the better. Obviously we are making a video for class so we are allowed to
take some artistic liberties with the video and if you guys can manage to make the
video funny that makes it all the better for everyone else in the class when we watch
them.
Assessment Summary
This assignment will show me that everyone has a firm understanding of what happened during
their specific event assigned, and if everyone does an excellent job it will serve as a tool to
teach your classmates about your event.
