As discussed earlier this month, Ray Bradburyās Fahrenheit 451
can be described as a work of projective investigation.Your task
is to select speciļ¬c events, ideas, or trends in modern society
and show how accurately Bradbury projected them into the
future.You should select a ļ¬eld of study of interest such as
fashion, technology, health, sports, the economy, the arts,
politics, etc. and analyze how current events, trends, and ideas
compare with what was predicted in Fahrenheit 451.You should
use (1) quotes and/or passages from F451 as well as information
from modern books, magazines, articles, etc. as resources.

28. MS-ESS2-2. Construct an explanation based on
evidence for how geoscience processes have
changed Earthās surface at varying time and spatial
scales. [Clariļ¬cation Statement: Emphasis is on how processes
change Earthās surface at time and spatial scales that can be
large (such as slow plate motions or the uplift of large mountain
ranges) or small (such as rapid landslides or microscopic
geochemical reactions), and how many geoscience processes
(such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and meteor impacts) usually
behave gradually but are punctuated by catastrophic events.
Examples of geoscience processes include surface weathering
and deposition by the movements of water, ice, and wind.
Emphasis is on geoscience processes that shape local geographic
features, where appropriate.]

2. Adapt existing stuff (i.e...tasks that your team plans
to continue with next year)
3. Using existing texts/materials if you can avoid
completely making stuff up
4. The more work you do on the front end the less you
have to do on the back end
5. Use technology to aggregate/grade student answers.
