= = = Welcome to Bacon's Volcano World! = = Earth Science 11 Assignment =

=
Your job is to research a specific volcano and record important information about it in **__point form__** on the template provided. You will need to find a variety **(at least 2**) of images/graphics to support your research. You must explore several resources (**minimum 2**) for your assignment and keep a record of what you used for your notes. In addition to the resource list on this wiki and your own independent internet searches, =====


 * Do NOT just cut and paste information directly into your wikipage. Identify the important information and __**summarize it in point form**__. You may need to use some technical terms, but most of what you include on your wikipage should be in your own words.
 * Where possible, use images, charts, diagrams, organizers, timelines or other graphics to clearly and concisely show important information. Provide a **__label or text box for ALL graphics__** to explain their content.
 * Make your wikipage visually interesting by varying the size, **boldness** and colour of the text. Be sure to leave lots of white space on your page...too much text both confuses and discourages viewers.
 * Be on the lookout for "cool" bits of information for your wikipage.
 * If you have any questions about the wiki or can't do something... ask the person on either side of you for help. Part of your task is to learn a new way of presenting information as well as something about volcanoes.
 * Project due April 26.
