Welcome to the room 117 wiki!! **Cicero Project**

We will create an online text book displaying the life and times of Marcus Tullius Cicero. For this project your group will need to create a wiki including the following:
 * 1) A section text, including the events going on in Rome during Cicero's lifetime. This should be a brief well written text book style few paragraphs to cover the history going on in Cicero's Life. /20
 * 2) A primary source selection you feel best supplements the chapter of the text you have created. Include a brief background or explanation of the primary source along with a reading strategy or questions to guide students reading of your primary source. /10
 * 3) Chapter Summary- The section you are producing must fit in some greater chapter write the summary of the chapter that this unit fits into. This should be a brief summary hitting the high points of the chapter. /10
 * 4) Timeline- Create a timeline of your chapter to go with the summary putting key events in chronological order. /10
 * 5) Blabberize - Find a piece of art representing a roman figure critiquing this era. Create a Blabberize conveying a historical message to aid in the understanding of your text section. I will work with you on accessing the Blabberize site to work on this. /15
 * 6) Enrichment - Add extra information such as art from the period that provides insight into the time period you are covering. Include anything you want. This section is where you can receive unlimited extra points based on the academic value of what you add. 5+Bonus /5
 * 7) A Chapter assessment that will show growth and understanding for students preparing to move on from this section. Make sure the evaluation covers the material of the section. It should include cumulative questions from the Rome unit you feel are essential for understanding. /10
 * 8) Design- Is your Online Text organized and Navigable? /5
 * 9) Professionalism - Is this completed with quality and meets all deadlines? This includes being on task in class. If you are on unassociated websites during work time, that will cost you points. /35
 * 10) Presentation- you will display this to the class upon completion of the project /15

You may work in groups of up to 4 but choose wisely, everyone will need to complete portions at a fast pace. Do not pick teams that will not complete goals.
 * Total Project value... 135 points!!!!**
