Oral Presentation Assignment
The
Significance of Home
Assigned:
Second week of semester
Due: WEDNESDAY,
AUGUST 6TH
For this
assignment, please select an article, observation, photograph, painting,
collage, film, song, poem, essay or anything else that offers some
message or reflection on the theme of home. It could have a personal meaning for
you, but it does not have to.
After you have
selected your “item,” write a minimum of one page about the item. Include a brief description of the item
and a detailed explanation of why you chose this item; include a thoughtful
commentary. Proofread carefully
for unacceptable errors as well as other proofreading mistakes.
On the day of
presentations, please do not read your essay to the class, but
simply summarize the main points aloud to the class. The presentation usually takes only a few moments.
You will submit a copy of the essay only to me.
As the semester
progresses, you may get ideas for your presentation from our readings, the
films we will be viewing, or from class discussions.
Remember that you
will not receive this short essay back nor will you receive any credit for the
assignment if there are ANY unacceptable errors present.
Please do not take this assignment lightly. It is worth 100 points.
