Choose a topic (baking, cars, dog grooming, cosmetology, gaming, etc.)
Create the presentation as if you were showing it to someone that knew nothing about the topic

Create a Word file:
File Name: LastName-FirstName-ResearchPaper (use your last name and first name in the file name)
MLA Format

What is the topic for your Final Exam Project?
Why did you choose this topic?
What keywords did you use to research your topic online?
What websites did you use to research your topic? Use at least 4 sources for your project.
