How project was chosen
The project was chosen by going on nhd.org (National History Day), where sample topics were looked at. This topic was chosen, and then put it in one of seven topics. The average person might not know about Gandhi’s journey through life. He inspired people with his nonviolent methods. Gandhi was chosen because of his inspirational movement. So, research was done to see what Gandhi did to make a turning point in history.
How the research was conducted
The research was conducted by going to the library and finding a few books. Online resources were used for the research displayed on the website. After sorting through the resources from secondary to primary, weebly was used to add to the bibliography. Then the information collected was noted on a piece of paper afterward it was put on the website.
How my project was created
The project was created by choosing a website because it would be enjoyable, creative and knowledgeable. The information that would be obtained from creating a website could be very valuable for the future. After signing up on weebly, the texts were added along with pictures, videos, slideshows and pages. Then the information was typed up into the texts then added pictures of meanings. Then the theme of the webpage was decided on. After that, the website was published for everyone to see.
How it relates to the nhd theme
