Q:   3 WORLD HISTORY I Mr. GeorgeName_______________________Block_____ Date___________________ FIRST CIVILIZATIONS UNIT ASSESSMENT: CIVILIZATION CREATION OBJECTIVE Students will evaluate the features of four ancient civilizations to create a new, ideal civilization. This project will continue to build your skills in Reading purposefully Writing effectivelyCommunicating effectively Solving problems TASK Your task is to create a new, ancient civilization and encourage people to move there. What will it be named? You must base your civilization on what you determine are the best aspects of the first four river valley civilizations that we have studied (Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, China). However, you can also create your own, original components and blend historical components together to create your ideal hybrid components. Explain to other humans why your civilization will be the best place to live so it will appear on USA Todays List of Top 100 Civilizations to live in! All six information categories (noted below) should be fully explained and developed. Each information category should include a wide variety of aspects drawn from Mesopotamia, Egypt, India and China. Your final product should display creative thinking with original/blended aspects of civilization. Your choices should be defended with logical reasons (clear rationale), supported with specific examples. You should be able to communicate a clear understanding of the features of civilizations and their connections to each other. In other words, why do you plan to use these aspects of civilization? What benefits do they bring? What are the disadvantages of the aspects you have not chosen? INFORMATION CATEGORIES The following aspects of civilization must be explained in detail: 1. GEOGRAPHY (What is your ideal environment?) location climate physical features 2. CITIES (How will your people settle?) layout structures 3. INSTITUTIONS (How will you organize your people and maintain order? Through government and/or religion? How will your institutions encourage good behavior or discourage bad behavior? Examples of laws?) government laws religion 4. JOB SPECIALIZATION (How will your people be grouped?) jobs social class system 5. TECHNOLOGY (How will your people advance and progress?) 6. RECORD-KEEPING (How will your people write and communicate?)

Presentations less than 2 minutes will be deducted by 50%. Presentations between 2 and 3 minutes will be deducted by 20%. Make sure you practice so you know how long your presentation will be.
