The Cell Theory:

Introduction:

Your assignment is to work with your group to research your assigned contributor to the development of the Cell Theory. Your group will then create a presentation utilizing Microsoft Sway that allows the class to take adequate notes because you will have a quiz on the Cell Theory. This quiz will be created using questions written by the groups researching each scientist.

The contributors to the Cell Theory you will learn about are:

·  the Microscope

·  Robert Hooke

·  Anton van Leeuwenhoek

·  Matthias Schleiden

·  Theodor Schwann

·  Rudolf Virchow

·  Modern Cell Theory

Task:

·  Research your assigned contributor to the Cell Theory

·  Create a presentation utilizing Microsoft Sway

·  Write 3 questions regarding your group’s assigned contributor to the Cell Theory

·  Different Types of Questions (multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, true/false, short answer, etc.)

·  Higher Order Thinking (HOTs) Questions

·  Correct Answer Must Be Provided With Question

·  Present your Sway presentation to the class
