Grading
1) Annotations (4)
400 pts.
Identify, read, and annotate at least one peer reviewed journal article
related to the weeks topic. Remember that a scholarly annotation
both summarizes and evaluates an article; for the purposes of this one
to three page (single spaced) assignment, you should do both.
Summarize by addressing questions such as:
1. What is the article about? (Think "elevator speech.")
2. What are the author's main points, claims, or arguments?
Evaluate by addressing questions such as:
1. Where does this article fit in the overall literature?
2. What implications might this have for curriculum?
3. How reliable is this article? (Think in terms of scholarly
credibility.)
4. How useful is the article to your own research?
200 pts
Per our in class discussions, your final project may be done either
collaboratively on your own. Your final project may be a 15-20 page
research paper, prepare a 15-20 minute conference presentation or a
full panel; an original course that fits your curriculum or a preliminary
draft of a curriculum; please choose whatever form for this project will
be most useful to you.
