Project Plans, Knowledge Hunts (10 knowledge-based questions), and student glossaries have been developed for each Mavericks theme area. The project plans were designed to be broad-based and open-ended. Therefore they may be easily modified to fit the needs of different students. They may also be adapted for specific learning objectives, to fit other theme areas, or even to be used in conjunction with the Mavericks resource as a whole.
