Prompt
Through the lens of a media channel of your choice, examine the following question: Does media reflect culture, or does media create culture? This media channel may come from new media, legacy media, or residual media. For the first part of the final assessment, you will provide the instructor with supporting documentation for your presentation: a narrative with a brief justification of your thesis, a list of scholarly resources, and an outline. In the second part of the final assessment, your arguments and evidence will be presented in the form of a multimedia presentation posted in a public forum.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
- Topic
- Identify your topic in a concise thesis statement that states a claim that you will prove and support throughout your presentation. This statement will give direction to your presentation and should be well thought out.
- Summarize how you believe this topic both reflects culture and society, and how it creates culture.
- Resources
- Provide an APA formatted list of scholarly research sources. For this, you may use resources covered in the course, including the primary text, as well as outside sources that you've found on your own.
- Describe your vetting of each resource and why it qualifies as a legitimate resource. Ensure you have enough resources to sufficiently support your thesis.
- Justification
- Create a thorough outline that justifies the planned content of your presentation. Be sure to detail what you would include on each individual slide.
- Provide a contextual list of two to four quotes you plan to incorporate into your presentation.
