In this project, you will work in teams of 1-4 and create an exhibit for a digital museum. This exhibit will uncover major conflicts associated with an assigned decade. Your group has the freedom to embed glogsters, powerpoints, prezis, videos, or any other widget into your wiki. You also have the option of creating a separate website all together, as long as it can be accessed through this wiki at CEC. All sources must be cited in MLA format!!! That includes all Images.

This project is due on May 17, 2011

IMPORTANT: If you create any new pages, it is important to enter your class and group number first (i.e., WD1 ECE2 Works Cited)
