Task
Dust Storms: "Dust Storm Near Beaver, Oklahoma." (July 14,
1935)
In this WebQuest, you will work in a group of four
members and assume the role of a newspaper reporter during the 1930s.
It is the responsibility of each group to investigate the Great Depression
from four different analytical perspectives: economic, social, political,
and cultural. Your group will then consolidate the research and create
a newspaper that would be distributed to a specific city assigned to your
group during the the Great Depression to inform them on current events of
the time.
There are four main steps to this project:
Step 1: Researching from a specific perspective
Step 2: Sharing research with the group and reaching consensus
Step 3: Creating the group newspaper
Step 4: Presenting the project
