Student Research

Every student has his/her own page for research. Students should use their pages to construct a multimedia annotated bibliography on their chosen topic. Student research pages should be continually updated and expanded throughout the semester. Instructions and resources can be found on the Student Resources page of my Guided History site.

Find below a list of some helpful resources for student research on revolutionary Russia (and primary sources for your presentations).
