[|Reflection on my Humanities Powerpoint]
This is my Humanities (Social Studies) PowerPoint Presentation, we had to do create slides for a country we had randomly chose out of a hat. I had changed to Afghanistan after i had volunteered for Israel/Palestine and had found it hard, therefore asked the teacher to change the country. Afghanistan was a pretty hard subject also since most information was biased, and there was more than one contradicting piece of information and facts which had been altered. It was expected a minimum of 14 slides in this slide show, filling out the templates until we had reached the end, then adding at least 1 slide for Physical, Social, Economic, Political and why is each the most important thing to point out?
 * What?:**

the steps given by the teacher: Step 1. power point template “Countries” from the multimedia site. It is next to the power point rubric. Step 2. Search the appropriate sources to find information: Step 3. Complete the template with the appropriate information. (Criteria A) Step 4. Add two or three pieces of clip art that add to the content and concept (D) Step 5. To conclude the project, add an additional slide or slides explaining one example of three of the characteristics: Physical, Social, Economic, Political. (Criteria B) Why is each the most important thing to point out? (Criteria C analysis—justify your decisions) Step 6. Bibliography (D) I have chosen this artifact because i am proud of it, i have gained good grades, that aren't excellent but better than mediocre, i have chosen this because I am proud of the effort i have put in it, and that now i can say truthfully, that i know about Afghanistan, and its state. I am proud of the high level of education i have gained from this project about Afghanistan, and facts that i know are not biased.
