    3. Summarize the information you want to present from the different sources. (Asummary states the important points gathered from the sources.)

    7. Create visuals to enhance your presentation. Make the slides readable and clear.Use graphics or art to make it interesting. Use text/type that is easy to read anddoesnt clash or get lost in the graphics/colors/art on the slides.

    9. Create a slide-based presentation incorporating all elements above. Must have atleast 15 Slides!

    -Good summary of the main points; long enough to get point across (15 slides minimum is required); has historical and biographical details
