Note the following when drafting your argument:
You will UPLOAD to Schoology at the end of class today. HW: Work on "take action" plan (file will be dropped to your wh drop folder)You will begin developing your plan for taking action to advocate for your endangered culture. This becomes the culminating work based on your research of this culture. You will need to develop a plan for taking some kind of advocacy action. You will need to decide what you will advocate for and what method you will choose to advocate for your endangered culture. This requires you to develop an argument (80% of summative final exam grade) and develop an action plan and advocacy product (20% of summative final exam grade). After you develop a plan and carry out your plan of action and present the final advocacy product, you will be expected to reflect on your choice of action and method of action (you will do this on your final day of class during exam week). Next class is when you begin your final work for this course for the year. Congratulations--you've arrived at your final summative in World History!
