Due:
If you are finished, that is great - if you are in need of some revision, please take today to do so. REMEMBER that you need to include a reference slide/page and you also need to reference your photos! Stay safe and wear a mask outside :). See you all on Monday :)
Due:
Can you believe the semester is already ending? You will have 2 weeks to complete this assignment, although you will be given other assignments, as well. It will count as your FINAL! (That means it is 20% of your grade!) As an individual, or in a group of no more than 3, you will create a power point presentation or write a 5 page paper on a serial killer of your choice. Each group may choose a serial killer (or famous person with a mental disorder) from the list, or if you feel there is another person you want to research that is not on the list, please get my approval first. Each person/group will also present the powerpoint/paper to the class. Therefore; each group/person will need to choose a different killer to research. This will be done first come, first serve.
The instructions are attached in the word document. Follow the directions and include the information requested. Many students find this to be one of the most interesting assignments that they do in this class, but some find it very sad and disturbing. If you would like to research a famous person with a mental disorder instead of a serial killer, you may do that instead. Again, please check with me before you go ahead and complete the project. Make sure you answer the questions listed in the attached directions, and as always, reach out of you have any concerns or questions. You guys are doing great! Keep it up - get your college credits! There are 2 exemplars attached to refer to, as well. (One PPT and one paper).
