Group Projects

Except this one!

On Monday, we'll be solidifying our group work plans and turning in a basic outline of your plans, which you'll be working on revising for the next week or so. Here are the questions I'd like you to answer in your groups today:

1. List your group members and your issue/construct.


2. In a sentence or two, describe your group's project plans so far:


3. Tell me about your "public document" -- What do you plan to make/create? Why might this be important/significant?


4. Tell me about your planned event. Who is your intended audience for this event? When do you envision this taking place (roughly)? What do you need to do to make this happen?


5. Tell me about your "report back" plans. How will you communicate your achievements to an academic audience (in the class to me and possibly at compocon). What form/media will you use to get this done?


Here are the groups so far:

Group 1: Emily, Carlos and Raul

Group 2: Paola, Ydana, Selena, Edna and Cynthia

Group 3: Adriana, Alex, Lysandra

Group 4: Francine, Olympia, Ahmed and Cassandra

Group 5: Lucero, Eva, Victoria, and Karina

Group 6: Kaitlyn and Savannah

By the end of class on Monday, I would like to see these group rosters finalized.

Here are some upcoming due dates:

Friday, February  14th -- typed group proposals are due. Basically, you're describing, in a slightly more formal manner, your plans for your group project. Your proposal should be detailed and well-thought out. If you'd like, you can type your information into this form

Friday, February 21st -- Have a brief presentation ready to give to the class about your PLANS and progress so far (can be a simple powerpoint, prezi, or even just some notes for talking points).
