Project Due Date and Time
Your Final Project Topic selection is due at the end of Week 9. A rough draft is due in Week 14 and your final project is due at the end of Week 16. However, it is suggested that you submit your final project and draft as early as possible so you can receive timely feedback.
Purpose
Now that you have begun to hone your visual literacy skills, approach this final project with a critical eye and apply what you have learned in class while finding meaning in imagery and addressing the sociology of perception. You have two options for this Final Project:
Option 1: Directed Research Paper
Option 2: Visual Essay

Option 1: Directed Research Paper
If you create a Directed Research Paper, the paper should be to 5 to 6 typed double-spaced pages, not including Title and Works Cited pages. You must select one rhetorical strategy (either Informative, Argument/Persuasion, or Critical Analysis). This research paper MUST include reliable and verifiable outside research and must be properly cited using MLA format. Any project that does not contain source attribution or parenthetical citations INSIDE THE PAPER will be returned with a zero for plagiarism. Your paper should be PREDOMINANTLY your own observations (approximately 60%), supported by research (no more than 40%). Also, be sure to incorporate thumbnail images where necessary as well as the interdisciplinary aspect of the course by exploring the sociology of perception when addressing your topic.

Topic- Go back to the 1960s and the Civil Rights Movement and make a study of the myriad photographs that documented racism in the Deep South. What impact did these images have on the American psyche and how did these photographs accelerate the fight for equality and desegregation across the country? Be sure to include the photos in your paper.

Feature news story

Assignment:

Produce a news feature-style story about a relevant current issue or person. This approximately 600-word story (can be longer but not much shorter) must be accompanied by two other elements: a photo, an audio clip, a video clip, a data visualization, an illustration.

It can be
Please make sure that this assignment is local meaning it is something about Vancouver, you have at least 4-5 quotes from people and at least two statistics.

– a profile about a person or organization that has some connection to a current news event (a small restaurant or gym owner and what the whole pandemic roller-coaster has been like for them and how they are coping; the local food bank and how it’s been doing under the current status; a student who has decided to do some interesting volunteer work to reduce climate change)

– a trend (the increase in a certain type of work style; the popularity of a new kind of cuisine/restaurant; a change in the way coaching works for youth sports;

– a spin-off about an issue that is currently in the news. Pandemic: how are gyms coping with the new shutdown. U.S. election: What are the feelings among some Americans living in Vancouver about how things are evolving. The province’s decision to freeze rents: how is that affecting tenants or landlords, some individual stories. Christmas: It’s coming, how is everyone preparing.

What I’ll be looking for:

– You have found the main character for your story and have their personal story included.

– You have more than just anecdotes and quotes. You have background information about the issue at hand, statistics or authoritative reports from elsewhere.

– You write in a feature style, so some description, colour, scene-setting included.

– You have a paragraph (the “nut graph”) somewhere near the start that clearly lets the reader know what this story is about

– You have vivid quotes, well-placed

– Your story is organized into coherent sections

– Your two additional elements add new information to the story (they don’t just repeat it) and are relevant and understandable.

Final Synthesis Paper

Final Synthesis Paper
There are two major goals for this assignment:synthesize the big ideas from the courseconstruct an argument (supported by evidence) to put forth a position pretend that you are on an advisory board for a group of educational researchers committed to community-engaged scholarship and practice. Your task is to describe your working definition of effective community-engaged scholarship & practice [CEP], including ways to achieve this goal. You should also specify how you will know when you have been successful. Your paper should 1015pages. As you put forth a position on effective community-engaged research and practice, be sure to explicitly link it to the literature. Most of the literature should come from this class but you may also draw from articles you have read elsewhere. (Be sure to include both class and outside references in a reference list.)I expect that each persons paper will have a different emphasis. In other words, you do not need to touch on every issue addressed in the course. Instead, think deeply across all the issues and focus on the parts that help you further your own research agendas and identities as a community-engaged scholar
