Due Tuesday, June 5th - It's Alive! - Final Project for Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein"

Overview: In small groups, you will create you own perfect being! Unlike Victor, you will all become responsible parents and teach your creation about life by creating a thoughtful Prezi about core values and the meaning of life (no biggie). Then, you will present your creation to the class, show your Prezi, and we will work together to educate the Creation like responsible citizens of the world.

Part I: It’s Alive! 

Create your perfect being. Be creative. Create a visual with sound to make your creation come to life!
Use images from the internet. Create a perfect computer image.  Use sound.  Animation.  Better yet, use famous people to give us an idea of the feeling behind your choices. Consult the list below:

  • Appearance:  Gender, height, eyes, nose, face, ears, hair, arms, legs, feet, hands - in other words - break it down carefully.
  • Mind:  Intelligence, personality, talents, sexuality, temperment, etc.
  • Voice
  • Mannerisms
  • Other attributes you can think of?
  • Special Powers?

Part II: The Prezi

Now that it’s alive. How will you raise your “child in the world”?  Create a Prezi (or a platform you like better) to teach your creation about the following topics:

  • Science 
  • Religion
  • Empathy 
  • Politics
  • Pop Culture
  • The Meaning of Life

Use what you have been learning in school.  Create a presentation that would help get the ball rolling for your creation.  Use images.  Research.  Facts.  Be creative.  Be aware of your audience.  What questions will arise? 


Part III:  Teach 

It turns out you were not the only one to create life.  You will present your Prezi to the class.  The class will take on the persona of your Creation (based on your criteria).  The class will ask questions as you present your Prezi, in much the same manner as the Creation learned from the family in the novel.
