Have students use Google advanced search to find Powerpoints (Ancient
Rome, Verbs, CA Missions- whatever)
Give them a little Gdoc template to cite and summarize their choices.
Part one of the assignment is to fill up the Gdoc with their citations
and summaries of their top 3 or 4 PPTs
Part two is to "Improve" their favorite PPT by sucking it in to
GPresentations and adding content (better examples,
better pictures, etc)
I imagine that with practice 6th graders could get this process down
to two class periods.
View the two PPTs in two windows side by side to compare!
Now that's integration!
