Question: You are hosting a dinner party. You may invite any three historical personages introduced during this course to your party. They may be famous, or just a type of person. Who will you invite? Why? What would you like to ask them?

Notes: Make sure the people you invite must be from the scope of this course, so make sure you stay within the years we studied, and the topics from the textbook or your reading group book. You are prohibited from inviting the following: You may not invite mythical types, (e.g. Hercules), and you may NOT invite George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King or Adolf Hitler. I have also checked with God, Jesus, the Buddha, and Mohammed, and they are all busy and can not attend your party.

Variable Topics in Culture and Society in Taiwan: NEW TAIWAN CINEMA

/in /by

Be sure to have a coherent and well conceived structure (introduction, body, conclusion), where you back your thesis/topic up with examples from the film(s) you are discussing. Also be sure to think of good title and dont forget to proofread. The final paper should be AT LEAST 6 pages in length, but papers as long as 12 pages will be accepted. Quality, however, is much more important than length.

Graduate students should try to write a paper approximately 15-20 pages. Graduate students should also utilize more secondary sources, especially Chinese language materials.

You are free to choose your own topic for the final paper, as long as you focus upon some aspect of contemporary Taiwan cinema. You can write about a director, film, topic or theme, genre, or even a technical aspect of filmmaking. Because of the length parameters, you should try to focus on a specific topic that is not too broad. In order to better focus on your analysis of the film, please keep plot summaries to a maximum of one or two paragraphs.

Here are some sample topics:

(Technical) Lighting and Cinematography in Hou Hsiao-hsiens Millenium Mambo
(Thematic) Coming of Age: Edward Yangs Brighter Summer Day and Yi Yi
(Comparative) Sex and the City: Taipei Youth Culture in Leon Tais Twenty-Something Taipei and Hou Hsiao-hsiens Millennium Mambo
(Director, Thematic) Representations of the Countryside in Lee Hsings Beautiful Duckling and Oyster Girl
(Genre) Exploring the Qiong Yao melodramatic formula
(Historical) Historical Representation in Hou Hsiao-hsiens Taiwan Trilogy
(Director) Nostalgia in the work of Tsai Ming-liang
(Industry) Ang Lee/Chen Kuo-fu and Taiwan Cinemas Transnational Future

During this course we have discussed both the narrative and technical elements of numerous films. You have also written about of these aspects of film in your short writing assignments each week and close analysis assignment. For your final paper feel free to focus either on an analysis of the narrative/plot or the more technical elements of the film(s). However, please note that these two sides of filmmaking are intricately interconnected and even if you decide to focus primarily on a discussion of the narrative/thematic elements, you should still make some reference to how the technical aspects of the film work in concert with those themes. The opposite also applies if you focus on the technical aspects of any given film.

Critically appraise the research and summarize the knowledge available on the clinical problem (minimum requirement of 6 scholarly journal articles reviewed and appraised for application to practice problem). Outline a strategic plan for implementation of a practice change in your clinical practice environment based upon your findings.

What sources of internal evidence will you use in providing data to demonstrate improvement in outcomes? Describe evaluation methods of implementation clearly. Are there any ethical considerations?

The presentation should be a simulation of what you would present to your unit staff in an effort to gain buy-in as you initiate the practice change in your area of practice. Use a recording platform of your choice and either upload as an mp4 or share the link directly to the video in the dropbox. ***Please do not record as voice-over PowerPoint because this cannot be saved in mp4 format or a link.*** If you submit your assignment as a PowerPoint with voice over recording you will not receive credit for your assignment (or partial credit as you did not meet the full requirements of the assignment.)

If PowerPoint is used for the presentation, include the reference slide; if PowerPoint is not used in the presentation, please submit a list of the references in a Word document utilized to develop the presentation in APA format to the dropbox in a separate submission (be sure to orally cite your sources if no PowerPoint is used to identify the sources)
