Please note that the student work has only been altered to protect identity; the content has not been modified. Since the time that this project was submitted to TEA, the submission requirements have changed. Thus, some of the submitted pieces of this project have not been included. The work that is on this website conforms to the new submission requirements as closely as possible.

The Student Project

This file includes the guiding questions. Previous submission requirements did not include a research proposal, so it is not part of this example.

This file includes the student's research log.

This file includes the student's resource process sheets for primary and secondary resources.

This file includes the student's list of artifacts and the rationale for choosing each of the artifacts in the exhibit.

This file includes a sketch of the student's exhibit, notes for the docent talk, and a bibliography.

Here is an audio recording of portions of the student's presentation. Because of file size, this is not the complete presentation. It does, however, provide an overview the student's project and the question-and-answer session. A transcript of the recording is also provided.
