The three pairs of students selected Sojourner Truth, Malcolm X, and Rosa Parks for their projects. First, with the help of the media specialist, they gathered information about their person using books from the library and various websites. Then I helped them with some of the technology for their presentation.  Some wanted to do a Keynote, and others wanted to do an iMovie project.  These students already knew the basics of the programs, but I showed them how to use the advanced features like adding backgrounds, music, and special effects.  They did all of the scripting and editing themselves. They also selected their own pictures and music to use. They even designed their own costumes and props! When they finished, I exported their projects as QuickTime videos and uploaded them to Vimeo so the students could share them with their classmates and families.
