 * CAPSTONE PROPOSAL- Washington DC – Building Prior Knowledge Phase **
 * Various 360 tours **
 * 360 Virtual Tour **

NOTE: Each monument/Memorial should have an official web presence (sometimes more than one). Start your research here and record your links for future reference.
 * 1)** **Research: What is the difference between a monument and a memorial?**
 * 2)** **Overview:**** //Your audience will be other students and adults going to Washington DC. Summarize the key learning points// ** ** //visitors will learn from your Wikipage// **
 * 3)** **Purpose of monument/memorial: The artist(s) created this monument/memorial for a reason.... What was it? Sometimes cited on web pages as "Rationale".**


 * 4)** **Content (Monument/Memorial): What information will visitors to your wiki learn about?**

Who, What, When, Where, Why…). You need to “WOW” us with good research! You are the teacher and you need to make it interesting for the learner. You must connect the historical content to the monument/memorial to make your visit relevant.**
 * 1) **The internet is a big place... Use it! Video, webpages, images, mp3's, etc... are all fare game!**


 * 6) Popular Culture: Movies, songs, commercials....**


 * 6)** **Learner Objectives: __(Specific learning outcomes__… What exactly will your visitors learn?) You Won't be able to do this until you have done your research. This will be one of the last things your do!**
