In the 21CC project the students will put together a trunk full of artifacts or ‘keepsakes’ from the perspective anyone who would have lived through the 1920s and 30s. The truck has to demonstrate the change the occurred over that 20 year span. The artifacts must be tangible (not only a picture of an artifact but a picture could be an artifact); could be original or replica (made by them). It follows the 6 phases of creativity with a student project guide and an artifact presentation rubric.
