Topics Students will post their project topics to a discussion board entitled
Topic Project 1 and Topic Project 2. Topics are received on a first-come-firstserved basis because I do not want any redundancy in project topics. For Topic
Project 1 you may select any topic from chapters 1 through 4 in our book
Culture and Values. For Topic Project 2 you may select any topic from chapters
5 through 12 in our book Culture and Values.
Critical Reviews For the first critical review, students will pick two topics from
chapters 1 through 4, which students are not using for their project, and write
at least 250 words for each topic, for a total of at least 500 words. For the
second critical review, students will pick two topics from chapters 5 through
12, which students are not using for their project, and write at least 250 words
for each topic, for a total of at least 500 words. The purpose of this short essay
is for students to practice the analytic and critical methods. Students will use
Bloom’s Taxonomy to practice the analytic methods: summary, analysis,
synthesis, and evaluation. For analysis, I mean to break something down.
Students can show its aspects of symbolism, character, theme, or setting. For
synthesis, students combine some of these different analytic aspects to show
its uniqueness. For evaluations, students cast a kind of judgement, based on
the analysis and synthesis. Students will use a cultural, critical approach to
practice the critical methods. This is very important in our course. When we
look at art, literature, architecture, music, or philosophy from a certain period
in time, we want to ask how this art is a product of its time and culture. In
other words, what aspect(s) of the culture and history produced this work of
art?
Annotated Bibliography This is a document in which you take a paragraph of
notes on all six of your sources and include the citations. Northeast State’s
library has a great sample annotated bibliography.
Discussion Boards
Students will be required to participate in discussion board forums. I want you
to initially respond to one of my prompts for that week with a minimum of a
150-word post. Then, read your classmates’ initial posts, and respond to two
different classmates with at least a 75-word response. Discussions will reflect
the current required reading assignments. You are required to participate
during the scheduled time period of the discussion in order to be eligible for
full credit. Participation in each discussion will be worth valuable points.
Participation will be evaluated for knowledge of reading assignments,
demonstration of critical thinking, and respectful and considerate behavior
towards others opinions.
Discussion Board Guidelines
1. Remember, without facial expressions some comments may be taken the
wrong way. Be careful in your wording of discussions. Use of emoticons might
be helpful in some cases.
2. Do not make insulting or inflammatory statements to other members of
the discussion group. Be respectful of other’s ideas.
H U M 1 0 1 0 I F 3 | 6
3. Be patient and read the comments of other group members thoroughly
before entering your remarks.
4. Be positive and constructive in group discussions.
5. Respond in a thoughtful and timely manner.
6. Respect the privacy of other class members.
7. Review the discussion threads thoroughly before entering the discussion.
Be a lurker (reader), then a discussant. Try to maintain threads by using the
“Reply” button rather than starting a new topic.
8. Special formatting such as centering, audio messages, tables, html, etc.
should be avoided unless necessary to complete an assignment or other
communication.
9. Follow the word count requirements (150 words for original post, 75
words for replies) and other guidelines listed on the Discussion Forum. Use
standard easy to read fonts (Bookman Old Style 12, Times-New Roman 12).
Feedback on Projects and Assignments Please give me up to two weeks to
comment on and grade student essays. When I’m finished, I will attach a
marked-up copy of the student’s essay in the student’s dropbox in which the
student originally submitted the essay. Open this dropbox and see my attached
document at the bottom of the dropbox.
Feedback on Discussion Boards Please give me up to two weeks to comment
on discussion board posts. Students can see my comments on the original
discussion board, and I will post grades in the student’s d2l grades link.
