 * 11th grade Multimedia Presentation Research Extravaganza**

An amazing opportunity is presenting itself to you. You, as a group, are going to choose a controversial topic that affects society. This is a topic of your choice; it may not, however, deal with lowering the drinking age, the legalization of drugs, or abortion. It must also be an issue that exists outside of the school. Once the topic is chosen, you are going to perform the necessary research, post the properly cited research on your wikispace, then create a multimedia presentation that is no less than 10 minutes and no longer than 12 minutes. Your final product is a 12-15 presentation consisting of a photostory and a class discussion.
