Kline/Feth International Travel Project

The purpose of this unit is to facilitate student learning about the world in which we live. The student will pretend that he/she is going to visit their chosen country for a minium for 8-10 days. To be prepared for the trip, the student will use technology to conduct internet research in order to be able to present facts about their chosen country’s resources, culture, government, religion, geography, political atmosphere, social events, recreational pastimes, history, economics, etc. After the student has gathered all of the research, they will synthesize the information and develop a presentation about their country.
