You are about to start the 7th edition of your
favourite historical activity... twitter in class!
This year it will be all about the Russian Revolution, a
topic that we have never performanced before; you must create a special twitter
account as you were one Russian character, that can be a famous or an
anonymous one (choose your character from this file). With this “historical account” you become follower
of @auladeadriana.
Specifically,
you can find some extra useful info from Russian women in this links from British
Library and Bolsheviks.
The application
period will start THIS WEDNESDAY (12th February), at 15:00. Just send me an email with your
chosen character and I will answer you back with the confirmation. Once
that you have the confirmation (but not before), you can start making your
character back to life :) You
will have several days for creating the twitter account; the more “realistic”
that you do it (portrait, biographic info, etc.), the better for your final
mark.
The debate will start Monday 17th and finish
Friday 21th, February. You have to create a minimum of 20 tweets (12 of them base on real
primary sources: texts, photos...) in the name of your chosen
character. Try not to be independent, but “talk” with the others. I will help
you with some clues for the timeline, so you will not be lost in the process.
I would also recommend you to use the hastag #HistoryatVasco in your tweets, to
facilitate its reading.
The previous years, this experiment was a total success
and your partners really did good performances, so you will have to work hard
for leading them...
This work is individual and mandatory and will
be part of the score at the end of the term. If you fail to finish it, do
it out of date, or just copy&paste from a webpage, the mark will be a 0 for
this work.
Be creative and enjoy it!
