I have used online resources extensively in planning the lessons.

Students will use the Internet to research the time period and the way that women were viewed at the time the play was written.

They will also use the scanner and computers to create their work during the unit. Finally they will use technology in performing their scenes.

Video recording of the scenes is crucial for the students to truly self-evaluate their own work. Ideally the class would create a project that included several scenes videotaped and edited together to create a complete project.
