Review the full details for Performance Task 1

Before you can complete the official performance task, we need to A) learn a little more about what is required and B) practice those skills. That's where your Mock Performance Tasks come in.

Performance Task 1 requires you work within a team. Your instructor will assign teams to work with for both this task and the official performance task. You and your teammates will "identify, investigate and analyze an academic or real-world problem." (AP Seminar CED) You can choose anything that sparks your interest.

Be advised, you will be required to "meet" with your team members in and outside of class. Your instructor will notify you of ways you can satisfy the meeting requirement. Each team will need to be in continuous conversation throughout both the mock and the official performance task.

You learned about selecting research topics in the previous lesson. In this lesson, we'll take that a step further and look specifically to see how to choose a topic for your team project.
