Unit Projects/Assessments for 10th-grade World History
Teaching History has some great ideas for unit assessments in World History. The site includes links to some interesting assignments.
For example, the site notes that "a lesson in the Cold War unit in the World History for Us All online curriculum asks students to create an annotated map of the Cold War and its impact on ?Third World? countries."
Another assignment from the New York State Education Department, includes "a project where students assume the role of a representative of a nation applying to the United Nations for assistance."
