4)+Wheelchair+(The+ADA)

This episode of 30 Days focuses on the handicapped, especially those in wheelchairs. This link provides a synopsis of the episode.

This project will be presented to the class on Friday. You will have two days to work on it in the lab, Wednesday and Thursday. You may stay for 6th and 7th periods if you would like more time to work on it.

You will need to make a Glog (a Graphic Blog) centered around the Americans with Disabilities Act. For more information on that click here and click here. To create an account on Glogster in advance, click here. Be sure to use my link to create your account. Creating a Glogster.edu account will not work for our purpose, it must be a Glogster.com account.

> Maps or Charts relevant to the ADA or accommodations
When you finish your Glog, you will need to embed it in your wiki and write a brief three paragraph essay on one of the following topics: 1) Why the ADA is a good set of laws 2) Why the ADA is a bad set of laws 3) Why the ADA does not go far enough 4)***You may choose your own topic if you clear it with me before you begin***

BE SURE TO CITE any quotes you get from a source when you write your paper. You should have at least two in-text citations and a bibliography of at least two sources.

Your presentation to the class will be a short two minute presentation telling us everything you found out about the ADA during your research. You may pull up your Glog and use that as presentation tool but you should be speaking during the entire presentation (don't just play a video or ask us to look at the pictures). When you embed your Glog, choose the 560X758 size, so it will be big enough for us to see.

I am putting a sample Glog that I made about myself below. If you need help making your Glog, look at the FAQ on Glogster, stay after for 6th and 7th periods or watch the video below of a sixth grader explaining how simple it is to use:
