By digitally organizing research, your class leaves a legacy for future students on the life and times of Mark Twain. Before reading The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, scholars conduct group research projects on one of six (listed) topics. They focus on recognizing reliable sources, digital curation, and a final presentation. Each group adds a section to a class LiveBinder, a free online organization tool. Spend ample time tutoring groups on this program. No worksheets included.
