Presentation Project:

Using approved guidelines for conducting simple Internet research, choose one Native American tribe and prepare an audio-narrated 

PowerPoint presentation

 (also located in Start Here) about the condition of tribal members today. You may not use the following tribes or tribal groups: Iroquois (Mohawk, Oneida, Seneca, Onondaga, Cayuga), Algonquian (Pequot or Shinnecock), Delaware, Apache, Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Seminole, Ute, Comanche, Inuit, Comanche, Menominee, and the Tsimshian. This means you will need to record and embed a narrative for each of your slides; i.e., say what you would say if you were presenting in front of a live audience.

• To find information from websites, you must adhere to the following guidelines:
• You must use only websites ending in “.org” or “.edu” or “.gov unless you receive special

permission from your instructor to use a “com” website (e.g., nytimes.com, etc.). Special

permission will be granted only if the website comes directly from (is published by) the tribe

you are studying or if you are using a site similar to LegendsofAmerica.com.

• Federal Register of Recognized Tribes

• National Congress of American Indians Search by tribe and then get their official website

• It is important that you do not use “.com” sites for a project of this nature as it is very difficult

to verify the source of the information you are reading.

• You must not use Wikipedia for information about your tribe. You can use Wikipedia or

Wikimedia for images or maps related to your tribe.

• Below are links to some websites that can help get you started:
