I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
1. Art as Social Commentary–The next two precis are due 12/1. The final creative piece is due 12/12. Keep in mind when choosing sources: Do not choose three sources that communicate the same information. The three sources should work together to provide you with added depth of understanding of your issue. You must include the source article (including highlights/underlines) and you must have a title. Sample title (title should be centered):
Precis: (Title of Article)
Based on your first precis, here are some thoughts:
- Precis should be SINGLE SPACED.
- Some of you still get the heading wrong. Now that we are in the second quarter, you are now penalized every time you get it wrong. Pay attention to the little things.
- You must turn in a hard copy of your source with the precis. I cannot grade it otherwise. Be sure the hard copy is highlighted/underlined. I want to get a sense of your engagement with the original source.
- Your precis should not be one paragraph. Use paragraphs to organize the source details in your precis.
2. 1984–You should complete Part 1 (p. 104) for Tuesday, 11/29.
