&= #8220;Will the Real Renaissance Man Please Stand Up?” is a unit designed to ex= pose students to some of the exceptional art, artists, and scientists of the A= ge of the Renaissance.  As memb= ers of a team of three, students will research a specific Renaissance Man and his contributions to art or science.  Each team will then participate in a game show during which team members answer questions about their Renaissance Man and his contribution= s to art or science.  Each team m= ember will assume the identity of their Renaissance Man, but only one team memb= er will answer the questions with accurate information all the time.  The other tw= o team members will attempt to bluff the audience by acting as imposters.  This will require the team to be= come thoroughly familiar with their Renaissance Man, and to invent two additio= nal, but believable identities for him.  Teams will earn points for correctly identifying the Renaissance M= an, and the team with the most points at the end of the game wins.  All teams must share and discuss= the actual artistic or scientific contribution with the audience, and all students will take a quiz identifying specific pieces of art and scientif= ic accomplishments at the end of the unit.
