INTERNET BROADCASTING MAY 2006

The Computer Arts component of Internet Broadcasting class will focus on the genius of Sarah Vaughn and Curtis Mayfield.
All Internet Broadcasting students are required to write biographical sketches of Vaughn and Mayfield. Your biographical sketches must be posted on your blog. Use encyclopedias, the Internet and magazines to research and compile information on these two 20th century icons of Black American Music. Remember, do not copy and paste. Research both artists and retell their stories in your own words. Biographical sketches must be at least three paragraphs in length.















The PowerPoint requirement for all Internet Broadcasting students is to set the following songs to pictures or to video. You and your cast can even record an original dramatization of either of these works.
