Description
This unit connects learning with technology to Social Studies. This is perfect for technology class or for use in a Social Studies or History classroom that wants to incorporate technology with a lesson.
In this lesson, students create a presentation in Microsoft PowerPoint (or Google Slides) from their choice of a topic from a provided list related to the Great Depression after researching that topic. They use the research information along with graphics, pictures and backgrounds from the Internet to create a finished presentation that explains their topic, and add their own opinions and insights to the project.
This is an excellent creative project to add to a unit on the Great Depression. The project was created for grades 7-8 but could easily be used with upper elementary or high school students.
