=Wiki Project Ideas -- Rough Outline (copied and changed from original lesson)=

** Directions (rough) ** Distribute the Student Activity sheet. Tell students that they will work in groups to research and complete a wiki page on the following topics. Remind students that their project should not only describe their topic, but also explore how Puritan beliefs connect to their topic.
 * Origins of New England Puritanism (example page?)
 * Natural Depravity of Humans
 * Government and Law
 * Labor and Secular Calling
 * Education
 * Arts and Amusements
 * Marriage
 * Attire
 * Legalized Intolerance
 * The Case of Anne Hutchinson
 * Persecution of Quakers
 * Salem Witch Trials

Key questions students should answer are: Wiki Project Requirements / Directions (rough ideas) **
 * // What aspects of your topic reflect the Puritan ethic? //
 * // Why might a strict code of behavior be important to religious ideology? //


 * Gather notes, information, and images about your topic in a Word document. Keep a record of the links you are using as you complete your research since you will need those later. **


 * On your wikipage, you need to post the following: **


 * At least three images with captions that illustrate various aspects of your topic. **


 * A clear and brief explanation for your peers of your topic (include key ideas, important people, places, dates, examples, etc.). Use an outline or bullet format for most of this section. **


 * A brief explanation (one or two paragraphs) of how your topic reflects Puritan beliefs . **


 * Headings for different sections of your wiki. **


 * A bibliography of web links and print sources you used to compile your wikipage. **
