The Showcase
The Showcase is my Action Research Project. The project investigated the effect having students create a multi-media mural will have on students' motivation.  The project  used a project-based teaching style that incorporated art, technology, writing and research.  Students designed and painted a mural about the county they live in.  Students researched topics using the Internet and local archives.  Students also used Flash software to create an online mural that is interactive.  This section also contains the Review of the Literature that supports the research.
