Students will be able to:
demonstrate in their writing a knowledge of rhetoric, uses of evidence, process-oriented writing, and academic community as related to the course topic of cultural heritage and curatorial activism;
articulate importance of and employ a variety of research methods and genres;
obtain and evaluate reference materials, books, and articles, among any other sources needed;
employ MLA or APA citation formats properly; and
develop insights effectively through written communication.
Instructions:
A major part of many exhibition guides is a selection of essays on a variety of topics relevant to the exhibition focus.
Think about the theme of your exhibition and its title.
Using your research and including quotations where appropriate, write an essay that brings all three of your pieces of cultural heritage together to explain the theme that you have selected.
Questions to consider:
Why did you put these three artifacts together?
What do you want to emphasize by bringing them together?
What is the purpose and significance of your exhibition?
What are you trying to communicate to your audience?
You do NOT need to and should NOT include everything about this topic; there simply is not enough space. You SHOULD narrow your focus down to the one main idea (the thesis) that you want to express through the curation of your Mini-Exhibition.Â
Requirements:
Minimum of 1000 words
Minimum of 5 relevant, fact-checked sources in an MLA-style Annotated Bibliography (see feedback on Fantasy League Annotated Bibliography)
May include the sources from previous assignments, however the citations and annotations should demonstrate revision using feedback on those assignments
These sources do not have to all be quoted in the Essay, but at least two should be. The others should be sources that have informed your thinking.
Should demonstrate a clear argument, central thesis, and organization
