Welcome to Lindsay Ruben's Wiki Showcase Extravaganza!!! Students will use research from credible sources to discern the truth from the lies about September 11th, 2001. They must research the specific events of that day using a wide variety of articles, interviews, and personal anecdotes. They will learn how to evaluate information for credibility and be able to detect bias. Then, in pairs, students will create PowerPoint presentations that take viewers through the events of the day using stills, clips, video, interviews, maps, charts, graphs, and/or sounds. The presentation should cover the four planes and their subsequent crashes, President Bush’s actions, flight control’s reactions, the plight of the NYPD, NYFD, and/or NYPA, as well as one of the many conspiracies. The final project is giving the presentation to the class, which should be 10-15 minutes long. All sources should be documented correctly according to MLA standards. What is truth? How does one pursue the truth? How does one judge the validity of biased information? Why must one judge the validity of resources in order to learn the truth? What exactly happened on 9/11? What are some of the conspiracies about that day?
