We watching 10 minute history of Russian Revolution, finished the reading Lenin and 1917 Revolution, and then began to organize thoughts for the submission of a video on FlipGrid.
You may find the reading on the previous post, if you need a copy.

4-5 minutes (or very solid 3:45 video) arguing which condition was most prominent and responsible for the collapse of the Tsarist regime. Due Friday end of day (day. not school day.) 1 reply to a peer who held a different position from yours by end of Sunday.
Grading:
Use of evidence - have I included information and proper citation from the resources available to us so far? Have I gone outside of those resources and appropriately cited them somehow? (brief statement in video, citations page held up at end?)
Strength/Clarity of Argument - do I formulate a clear thesis and approach my argument through evidence and reach a sound conclusion based upon the evidence gathered? Am I using more than one piece of evidence to support a claim?
Inclusion of perspectives - have I mentioned other reasons for the collapse of the regime and why they were less important than the one I believe to be most prominent? Have I given them appropriate consideration or merely mentioned their existence?
Scholarly behavior - broad category: is my voice clear? can I be understood? Do I speak too quickly? Am I recording myself and not my ceiling fan? Am I in a location that allows me to be heard over other noises, free from distractions?
Replies - have I replied in a meaningful way to 1 peer who held a different perspective from my own? Did I reply in a way that addresses their main points? Have I replied in a way that reflect collegiality? Did I reply superficially? Was I rude to my peers?
