Final project instructions
Your Final Project for this course will be a virtual time capsule. A time capsule is a grouping of items for future discovery. For our purposes, we will imagine that our time capsule will be buried at the end of the course and opened 100 years later.
The goal of our capsule is to provide an overview of what you believe future generations should remember about the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. The project can be composed in Microsoft Word or PowerPoint. It can include multimedia if you wish.
You must include the course materials in your time capsule; incorporate APA formatting (citations and a references section). Word count specifications are described below for each category.
The final project should include the following EIGHT criteria:
Item 1: Letter of introduction: Write a letter, including a minimum of 250 words, describing your current life to a potential reader 100 years in the future.
In your letter, consider the following questions: What is your daily experience? Describe your daily routine, as well as your customs and habits (i.e., holidays, work schedules, etc.). Also describe your perspective on the modern era, and your dreams/ goals for the future.
