In this
project you (and a partner) will research the ages of Earth and construct
a visual timeline.
One
of several methods may be chosen for the final product ......
 |
- compose your timeline upon a foam board
at least 12" x 18"
- you can print out images and titles from the class printers and fix them
onto the foam board poster into a
final product |
 |
- learn to use the basic elements of
PhotoShop and
layout a composition on an 11" x 17" canvas for printing in colour
- we have a larger format printer in class to handle this size |
 |
- construct a
web page for your project using the strenghts of communication
that this media affords such as hyperlinking and animation if possible
|
 |
- PowerPoint ? this can be an
interesting media when it works and isn't over worked ....... the problem
can be portability of the final product. |
This
project should include short descriptions of the various Eons and Eras
and make good use of visual elements that you will most likely find on the
Internet.
You
will show the general trends as Earth changed over the Eons in a visual
and point form manner.
Your
project should highlight
some interesting topic such as
 |
- human timeline
(this is fairly limited) |
 |
- dinosaurs |
 |
- life in
general |
 |
- extinctions |
 |
- some other
topic of your choice |
