Just to reiterate some points during class:
You and your group members are required to compose a collaborative multimodal document (one which incorporates any combination of words, images, videos, multimedia, etc.) for the purpose of generating discussion and instructing the class on how to formulate a research question and how to write a literature review. You can choose to emphasize either the research question or the literature review...it's up to you and your group (Don't forget, we also had this reading for formulating a research question: http://www.bedfordstmartins.com/researchroom/question/).
Again, I realize I'm giving you a very short amount of time to do this, so I'm not expecting anything dazzling here, but you should try to make your creation presentable. Some possible multimodal documents include, but are not limited to:
- A PowerPoint presentation
- A digital poster (http://www.glogster.com/)
- A digital newsletter (http://letterpop.com/)
- A small webpage (http://www.weebly.com)
- A short video
By giving you folks the opportunity to work together and teach the class, I think that you will learn more about what is required for your Research Proposal (plus, it's more fun than just hearing me talk). We will spend most (if not all) of Thursday's class finishing up these little projects and presenting them to each other. Finally, if you don't get to the other readings assigned in the textbook, that's okay (just try to catch-up on them over the weekend).
I'm looking forward to seeing that you folks come up with!
