Must be a multimodal project, to include both the linguistic mode and at least one other mode of communication.
Must be a text that can be shared with a public audience.
Must cite both research and any music/photos/other media used.
That's it! There's no required word count and you can choose the medium that you communicate your research in.

Step 1: (15 points) Polish your project. Use the drafts you've written and the feedback you've received to finalize and polish your public audience project. See the checklist above to make sure you've completed everything. How can you get your research to a public audience? What is the central point that you want them to take away? What kind of action do you hope they will take?
Step 2: (5 points) Cite your research and add a Works Cited section. Remember, this project should be based in the research you did for your research paper, which means it should include academic research. To boost your credibility as an author, create a Works Cited section so that your readers can see the peer-reviewed, credible sources you used in developing your argument. Also, be sure to attribute and cite any images, videos, music, or other media you used that you yourself did not create. Note: for instructions on how to cite multimedia sources, refer back to the reading from last week ("An Introduction to and Strategies for Multimodal Composing" by Melanie Gagich) and Purdue OWL: MLA Works Cited: Electronic Sources (Web Publications) and MLA Works Cited: Other Common Sources.
