Analyzing

=**__Analyzing__**=

Use this page to post questions/thoughts pertaining to the "analysis" that is required for your presentation. Analysis can be included in your presentation verbally, visually, or within the objective of the presentation itself.


 * __Definition__:** The learner breaks learned information into its parts in order to best understand that information. (Understanding relationships between the whole and its component parts; between cause and effect; sorting and categorizing; understanding how things work and how the parts of something fit together; understanding causal relationships, getting information from charts/graphs/diagrams/maps.)


 * __Examples__:**
 * 1) **Verbally:** Within your speech, discuss similarities and differences between Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson.
 * 2) **Visually:** Use a Venn Diagram to compare them. Put it on a poster, on a PowerPoint slide, or as a handout to the students. Discuss it with your audience. Or, analyze a primary source that highlights your learning objective.
 * 3) **Project Topic:** Is modern American society more Hamitonian or Jeffersonian? Your entire presentation will be comparing these two men and their influences.
