READ THIS FIRST.
(If you have already read the following, click here to skip directly to the tasks.)
The following tasks are designed to help each role find relevant information for the gallery exhibit. Each task must be completed as best as possible, using the links provided. Each role will have a task report sheet that will be handed in to M. McGill for review, before preparations for the presentation are to begin.
Remember, each group can assign roles to individuals, or all members can spend a certain amount of time on each role, together. If you choose the latter, use loose-leaf to take individual notes, and combine responses, during the 10 minute meeting, on the report form.
Also remember, if it is not possible to find the required information for a certain role, after using the links provided (including the search engines), use the last period to find information from the Gordon Bell Library.
You have three periods to complete these tasks. You will find links for each role and civilization on the Links page.
Good Luck!
