Middle Ages Webquest - Step 6

Step Six: The Verdict

After examining the evidence regarding the government, economic system, religion, and society of the Europeans during the Medieval Era, you must now present the pros and cons and create a well-organized response to the question which prompted your mission: Can the system of government, the economic system, religion, and society of the Europeans during the early Medieval Era be applied to and used by the 22nd century post-apocalyptic people to create a functional society?

Your response will either be a flyer OR a written report which presents the pros and cons of Medieval Era institutions- government, economic system, religion, and society and demonstrates your position of support or non-support for implementing a medieval Era feudal society in the 22nd century post-apocalyptic world. Your final written analysis of whether or not you believe these Medieval Era institutions can be used to create a functional society in the 22nd century post-apocalyptic world should be based on the historical information you examined in the webquest and should be clear about why you support or don't support adopting them for the 22nd centruy world. Remember the purpose of the flyer or written report is to inform and help persuade or dissuade others in making a final decision.

Option 1: Flyer

Create a flyer (2 Pages) which illustrates (pictures/may use some words) the pros and cons of Medieval Era institutions and demonstrates your position of support or non-support for implementing a Medieval Era feudal society in the 22nd century post-apocalyptic world. Your flyer should include a catchphrase that announces your position (ex: Feudalism: Not for Us!!), you may not use that example. Your flyer is trying to inform the viewer of the institutions of the Medieval Era and their pros and cons. Your final written analysis should be based on the historical information you examined in the webquest and should be clear about why you support or don't support adopting them for the 22nd century world.

Option 2: Written Report

Write a report which outlines the pros and cons of Medieval Era institutions and demonstrates your position of support or non-support for implementing a Medieval Era feudal society in the 22nd century post-apocalyptic world. Your report is trying to inform the reader of the institutions of the Medieval Era and their pros and cons. Your final written analysis should be based on the historical information you examined in the webquest and should be clear about why you support or don't support adopting them for the 22nd century world.
