For the Final Project, each team member’s name MUST be on the Title Page or otherwise listed on the assignment. When the assignment is completed, ONLY ONE member of the team will upload the assignment on behalf of the team. Multiple uploads by any team will result in an automatic 30 points reduction in grade. Therefore, remember, ONLY ONE member of the team submits the final project on behalf of the team.
The Final Project is divided into two (2) parts as follow, requiring two separate uploads by each team. Again, ONLY ONE upload per team, meaning, a representative of the team uploads each part of the Final Project on behalf of the Team.
FINAL PROJECT PART II (50 points):
In order to demonstrate their understanding of the legislative process, students will complete a Final Project in teams in which they use infographics to model and demonstrate the Congressional legislative process of the United States in enacting a particular law. This means that you MUST choose a law that Congress has already enacted and use Infographics to demonstrate how this was accomplished. Students are required to choose an issue for which a bill was passed in the United States Congress to develop this infographic demonstrating the Congressional legislative process. “An infographic is a collection of imagery, data visualizations like pie charts and bar graphs, and minimal text that gives an easy-to-understand overview of a topic” (Nediger; Vengage.com, 2023, para. 7), What is an InfographExamples, Templates & Design TipsLinks to an external site..
