These presentations will focus on the reading assignments or topics we are discussing in class. Presentations will be assessed on the basis on organization, clarity, and presentation style. I will provide you with instructions for these assignments as the course progresses. Each paper will address a specific topic related to the assigned readings or topics we are covering in the course. I will give you more specific information about the requirements for each paper later in the course.
All papers are due in class on the day specified in the syllabus.
If you have to turn in a paper late, you should contact me in advance and let me know. Your project can focus on any aspect of American Studies related to this course that interests you the most, pending my final approval. I will provide you with more specific details about the requirements for the project in the weeks ahead. The project is due on the date listed in the syllabus. Projects turned in late will be marked down one letter grade for each day they are late.
