Which technology is more influential – electricity or the printing press? Mrs. Giarrusso’s AP European History students completed a Shark Tank project in which they presented what they see as the most influential technologies in European History to a panel of possible “investors.” One team presented on the printing press and a second team presented on electricity. Three out of four “sharks” chose to “invest” in the printing press, which they felt had a greater impact on European History and the greater world. Special thanks to the panel of sharks, Superintendent Wetherbee, Principal Moore, Mrs. Boyle, and Mr. Karker!
