It's time to have some Instagram like fun with AP Euro.
For Mercantilism section of Unit 4 (Ch. 16)
As a class, each student will take on the role of a monarch, businessman, trader, sailor, or nobility of 18th century Europe.
From this person's perspective, you will 'post' (we will use Keynote to create the 'post') 3 photos with captions and tagging other classmate characters, including them in your conversation - this should show the connections mercantilism had between different parts of society. Note not all of these connections were positive. In addition to your 3 'posts', you will need to respond to 2 classmate 'posts' as a comment - meaning you will need to check on the progress of their 'Instagram' posts as well.
Your post need to:
- Have a photo (1 to 10 points)
- A caption (1 to 10 points) that tags another classmate (5 points)
Points based on how well the photos and captions show a connection to:
- society
- the economy
- a history event that involves mercantilism
- another classmate
Your comments:
- Need to show your connection to the original photo (1 to 8 points)
- Gives your perspective or point of view of the photos content (1 to 5 points)
We will draw for roles/personas in class on Monday 10/27
Project will be due by end of class on Wednesday 10/30 ... you will share your 'posts' via Google Docs with me.
