Canadian Road Trip 
Canadian Road Trip
With a partner, plan a trip to six (6) key areas in either Canadian history, culture, or industry. Using Google Maps/Google Earth, plot out a logical trip that would take you to all these destinations (stay ground-based as much as possible) and provide a short description of why this place is important in Canadian history. Finally, groups will be asked to briefly present their trip to the class. Your trip should have a consistent theme, which can be chosen from the list below or you can come up with your own (it must be approved): 1) Prime Ministers 2) World War I 3) World War II 4) The Railroad 5) First Nations 6) Confederation 7) Sports (Hockey, Olympics, etc.) 8) Canadian Geography 9) Inventions & Inventors 10) Canadian Industry

Presentation involves technology, but incorporation is flawed. Presenters rely too much on written notes, but knowledge of the subject is evident. One presenter may dominate the presentation.
Good/Very Good

Presentation is informative. Technology is used effectively and it is clear that presenters have a working knowledge of the topic. May still read notes too much, but presenters are equal partners.

Wow!

Group members were on task throughout the entire three days they had to work on this assignment in class.
