For this week's HW, you will continue the work we will complete in class on the "Road to Revolution" Video Quest.  

***IMPORTANT*** 

  • The videos for this assignment seem to work very well with portable devices, such as iPads, iPods, tablets, smartphones, etc.  When using your computers, you may have to download the files, in order to get them to work.  You can delete them when you're done.  
  • All of the information regarding the video quest has been emailed to you.  All of the files should be in your "shared with me" google drive folder.  
  • You will need your headphones to complete this assignment 


Please note the criteria upon which you will be evaluated.   



This assignment will count for 4.0 grade points (a major exam).  Failure to complete the assignment timely may result in a ZERO grade.  Your evaluation will be based on
