Research Questions:
How did the Glorious Revolution affect the New World Uprisings?
How were Niccolo Machiavelli and Jean Jacques Rousseau who were in different
time period related to one another?
What did we learn from the Glorious Revolution? How can we adapt it to our life?
Product Description:
The scrapbook will contain the information of the topics we chose: the revolution,
the figures, and the ideologies. We planned to make the book digitally, and maybe print it
out or just post it on our e-portfolio. There will be pictures, brief information about each of
the topics, and some additional items that is related to them. There might also be a
timeline or a mind map that will show the connections between the topics. We will start
each topic with a paragraph(s) of background information. There will also be a short
description for pictures and other things that we will add into the scrapbook. We might add
some interesting facts about the topics. All the references will be included on the last page
of the book.
How the product demonstrates the connection between the selected topics and the
goals/essential understandings of this unit:
The product will contain information of people in enlightenment period and their
accomplishments and ideas. We will show how the ideas of those people affect our
chosen ideologies and how those ideologies changes over time and over revolution. From
answering our research question about the connection between Machiavelli and
Rousseau, we will get to think critically about the relationship between those two people.
We will have to look up the thoughts, ideas and achievements of those two people
separately and compare them together. From this project, we will also be able to analyze
the cause of Glorious revolution and the consequences of it.

Our scores for each VARK learning styles are quite similar, but the highest one is
the read/write strategy. Therefore, we planned to search for articles and texts. We will take
notes for key information and to keep track of our research. We may as well look for
diagrams, pictures and flowcharts, which are related to visual style. For auditory strategy,
we might search for videos which give information and explain about our topic and
questions.
