Comparison and Contrast: Culture Capsules

The Culture Capsules project allows students to collaborate, researching the Internet on a cultural topic of their choice. They jointly write a comparison and contrast paper which they incorporate into a web page, complete with links to websites and graphics which they find through their research. Students make these web pages themselves with the help of a template provided by the teacher.

Enjoy reading these Culture Capsules. Feel free to use the Email links at the bottom of each page to communicate with the authors. Thanks for reading!
