  15. IT’S ALL ABOUT LOCATION • Constantine knew that the city of Rome wasn’t important any longer and that the real action was East. • Trade routes coming from Africa, Asia, and Europe all met at a little Greek town of Byzantium. • Constantine moved the capital and renamed it Constantinople. • We’ll learn about this city and the East in Unit 11.

  16. BACK IN ROME • Things are not going so well. • The once great city is in it’s death throws. • Let’s take a look at a list of bad things going on in the Eternal City.

  19. TOMORROW • We will meet the Barbarians who plundered and destroyed the once mighty Rome. • But now we are going to talk about a VERY unique project I want to try with you. • You can skip the OLS tonight as we covered it all in class.

  20. ROMAN RECORDINGS POINT VALUE 30 POINTS

  21. INDEX • DIRECTIONS: SLIDES 3- 8 • RECORDING DIRECTIONS: Slides 9-25 • WRITING DIRECTIONS: SLIDE 26 • RUBRIC: SLIDES 27-32

  22. DIRECTIONS1 of 4 You will create a 1 minute recording detailing what your favorite topic we discussed in this Unit (Rome) and tell me a few facts about it. http://www.recordmp3.org/

  23. DIRECTIONS2 of 4 You will record yourself giving your answer in your own words. This will give you a chance to use your voice, the most powerful tool you have. The recording will be you stating what your favorite topic we coved in Unit 10 and some facts about it.

  24. DIRECTIONS3 of 4 • Pick one topic you really liked. • Research it a little. Maybe write down what you want to say before you record your answer. • Follow the easy to follow directions included and record your answer and kmail it to me.

  25. BUT I DON’T HAVE A MIC!!!! • Yes you do. Each computer has a built in microphone. You do not need the headset. All you have to do is talk. • But I will give you a variation of this assignment if you are dead set against recording yourself. See index for slide number.

  26. DIRECTIONS4 of 4 • Once you are done with the project you will kmail me the finished product. • Think of this as a way of speaking in front of the class without actually having to do it. The only person who will hear them is me. • Public speaking is something we all have to do at one point in our lives. It’s best to start practicing it sooner than later. • Good luck and have fun with this. It’s something new and simple but will challenge your mind.
