 * The Process**
 * 1) First you'll be assigned to a team of 4-6 students. Your team will be given certain years from the song to research.
 * 2) Within your team, you will assume one of the following roles:
 * **Culture Reporter (News Show or Online Newspaper)****:** Your job is to research and analyze those items within your years that apply to culture. This would include sports, entertainment, literature or any other topic that is not politically-oriented.
 * ** Political Reporter ** **(News Show or Online Newspaper)** **:** Your job is to research and analyze those items within your years that apply to politics and government. This would include leaders of countries, wars, political events or any other topic that is politically-oriented.
 * **Geography Reporter (Wiki Embed):** Your job is to plot a on a Google Earth map the items from your groups' years. Your role is similar to a weather reporter, but you just give a location tour of events, people, etc. You will embed videos, photos, etc. on the virtual tour in Google Earth. Your final project will be a KMZ file for embedding in the wiki. To do your preliminary plotting, you can print this map. [[file:world_country.pdf]]
 * **Fire Tracker (Editorial - News Show, Online Newspaper, WebCam Video embed in a Blog Site and Wiki):** Your job is to decide why Billy Joel chose to include each item as a contributor to the "fire." You must analyze the facts your group has gathered about your items and determine what makes them significant, especially to our lives today.
 * **Interviewer (News Show, Video Embed on Wiki):** Choose two events from the decade your group was assigned and write 10 interview questions based on that event. Then, find someone who lived through that event to interview. Record their answers, and include an evaluation of their answers along with what you learned through conducting the interview.
 * **Timeline Illustrator (Wiki Embed):** Create a timeline of 10 dates and explanations from the decade your group was assigned. Be creative, and include illustrations for each event. Use the following website to create your timeline: TimeToast

 * 1) Once you've picked a role to play, you will begin your research. View the calendar page for more information on project due dates, etc. The Culture Reporter and Political Reporter will need to work together to determine who needs to research what. The following links in the lyrics of the song will function as your starting points: (Add additional links to the wiki page for each topic. Some of these links do NOT work.) Focus on significance. Give an overview of the event/person/etc. but also think about why Billy Joel chose to include it. What was special/significant about it? [[file:ResearchQuestions.pdf]]

 * If you still need information on your items, do a search on one of these search engines or whichever one you commonly used. Bookmark this wiki site in your browser.

 * [|www.altavista.com] || [|www.excite.com] ||
 * Once your research is compiled, your team will begin working on the presentation. You will have two days to work on your presentation. You will need to present your information in the style of a television news show. During your presentation, you will follow the order that is listed in the [|role descriptions] . Your presentation will need to be 10-15 minutes long. Use digital media. Your group can record the show on your own time to then show the class.
