Unit of Inquiry

Today we continued to discuss how technology has changed over the years. Students began their fourth mini project – a timeline. For this project, student need to pick a strand of technology and create graphics to show these changes over time. This will be done my hand – technology will be used for research purposes only. Along with the timeline, students will submit a ½ -1 page written reflection regarding the change in technology. Students will need to talk about the changes in technology and also your viewpoint on whether these changes are good or bad.
