Peer and Self-Editing Chart

You are a new curator of a well-respected museum, and you are responsible for your first big exhibit. You want the exhibit to be well-rounded with artifacts that fully represent the culture. In order to do this, you must conduct research about the culture. Based on your research, you must select at least five (5) cultural artifacts to include in the exhibit. The exhibit should contain a variety of cultural artifacts including, but not limited to, paintings, sculptures, pottery, clothing, jewelry, tools, and/or instruments. For each item in the exhibit, you must create an information card that explains the item and how it is relevant to the culture.

Make corrections on your project by having a peer edit your museum. After making corrections, self-assess your project to make sure that you have included everything.
