Create and Present: 9/11 Digital Posters Group Project

You may work alone or in pairs using websites like Infogram or Pictochart to create
digital posters based on one of the following topics:

The entire day of 9/11

Highlights of each individual planes destruction (Pentagon, Twin Towers, Flight

93)

The heroes of 9/11

The Iraqi war that resulted from 9/11

Stereotypes that were perpetuated through the 9/11 attacks

Other ideas related to 9/11 must be approved by your teacher

Your final project should include one digital poster with a creative title that clearly
introduces your topic. Your poster should incorporate interesting visuals and statistics or
details related to your topic. All information should be accurate and come from reputable
sources, which should be listed and submitted to your teacher when you present. The
list of sources should simply be a list of websites, book titles, newspapers, etc. you used
for your project, you do not need to create a bibliography. You will be presenting your
digital posters to the class, highlighting interesting points you found while researching
your related topics. That being said, you need to be prepared and well informed about
your topic, so you can be our class expert on the topic you choose and share what you
learned with the class.

Fill out and return this portion of the sheet to your teacher:
