How to Create a Virtual Museum of the “Gilded Age”

Choose a person, place, event, or item to research. Research the topic, and then address the following questions:
- If you chose a person, discuss his/her achievements; also, what impact this person, event, or topic had on later history.
- Provide some context by discussing events related to your topic.
- Why is this person/thing important? How does the topic relate to something we have discussed in class?
- You can also discuss any recent news or controversies related to your topic or maybe a cultural reference.
- Provide an interesting or unusual thing you learned about this person or event (or related)—feel free to cast a wide net in discussing anything related to your topic.
