Write the summary of the Short Story on the POV of Belinda from Rape of the Lock.
What needs to be included into the short paper/presentation:
– How does your project connect to our class? How does it give a new perspective or greater understanding of the literature we read? How might your project make connections across boundaries (readings, time period, nation or ethnicity, culture, gender or race or sexuality or religion, class or economic status, genre or form)? You can use your reflection piece as a guide for this part of the presentation, since presumably you will have already answered some of these questions in that essay.
– Share an excerpt or example from the project itself. For example, if you make a video, I would like you to give a brief summary of it and then show an excerpt. Similarly, if you write a short story, I would like you to give a brief summary of it and then read an excerpt.
-End your presentation with 1-2 discussion questions for the class. The questions should link the project to our class readings and/or discussions.
Write a 3 page reflection about the short story and process.
– Explain the short story and how you went about creating it – What research or preparation did you have to do? What materials did you need? Who did you consult? How long did it take? What kinds of obstacles did you have to overcome to do this project? If you worked in groups, how was the work divided up? Did everyone contribute equally?
– Explain why you made the choices you did regarding your project. Why focus on that reading or that author or that theme? Why did you choose that format or medium? Why did you organize it in that way? Why choose those pictures or that music? Be specific.
– Explain the theoretical or philosophical implications of your project and its significance as it relates to this class – What did you learn about the readings/authors as you did your project? How does this project give you (and your classmates) a new perspective into the readings? How does approaching a reading through this creative angle reveal something different than if you had simply written a paper? Does the project suggest any larger ideas about literature or art or humanity in general? Or what about more narrowly – does it reveal anything about you personally?
– You should also include a Works Cited page listing all the sources you used for the project.
