Choose a movie from the list provided in Module 2 (China). View the movie of your choice (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, VC library) and write a response paper. Discuss three ways in which the film contributed to your understanding of Chinese culture. Papers displaying any evidence of plagiarism receive a grade of zero. Previously submitted papers receive a grade of zero.
Paper Guidelines: Your papers should contain a clear introduction stating the main points you will discuss in the body of your essay, a body with three paragraphs treating your main points with supporting evidence, and a conclusion that summarizes your main points with final remarks. Papers should be about 500 words in length and must cite any source you use (film, textbooks) on a Works Cited page in MLA 9 format.
You are not required to conduct research for papers but if you choose to do so, here are my guidelines on acceptable sources and citation.
Acceptable Sources and Citation: Academic sources are articles and/or books written by scholars in the field you are researching. Non-academic internet websites are not acceptable sources and if utilized, it will be reflected in your grade. Because of the variety of sources, ease of publication, lack of central control and proliferation of commercial information on the internet, it is often hard to tell if the information is reliable. Many sites contain research and information of high quality.
