Overview
This section describes and provides links to or information about projects I do in my classes. When I find one that someone else uses in their class (e.g., Banned Book Quest or SCORE CyberGuides) I also like to include them here.

Project Index
I will return when I have time to provide brief descriptions for these assignments.

  1. America Project (Freshman 1H Fall 2000)
  2. Santa Monica Senior Exhibitions Project (written up by Bill Clawson)
  3. The History Project
  4. Sell Me Anything: A Project on Persuasion
  5. Advertising Project
  6. The California Project
  7. The Epic Project
  8. The Huck Finn Project
  9. The Personal Project
  10. Senior Project: Where Am I? Where Am I Going?
  11. United Nations Project
  12. Banned Book Quest
    High school students look at different perspectives on censorship in schools, particularly the potential of books being banned by local school boards. Placed in the role of Concerned Citizen, School Library Media Specialist, Lawyer, or Public Librarian, these committees then develop a recommendation for the board.
  13. William Golding/Lord of the Flies Trial Simulation
    This simulation tries William Golding for libel, charging that he misrepresented human nature. A challenging, engaging simulation that can be adapted for other books.
