For the final weekly assignment you get to design the unit 13 lecture. Begin by reading the two essays assigned for this unit. Consider their place in the broader context of the class.
Create a power point presentation that first summarizes this week’s readings. Explain the material this wiek as if you were teaching the last week’s material. You will use written words rather than pictures to convey the meaning of the material. Once you have a nice summary in place consider how this week’s material unifies everything we’ve learned. Try to summarize the class by mentioning other ideas that we’ve learned over the weeks.
Aim for at least 10 slides (title slide included) however you may go as far over that as you need. Please don’t bog down your presentation with visuals and bullet points. Think of this as a presentation/paper but one where you get to highlight whatever you find most significant. What you write down on your slides should be substantial like an essay. l
Your lecture should show good understanding of the reading and synthesize information together. Spend roughly the first 80% explaining/summarizing the reading from this unit. Then, think of the remaining part as the concluding thought for the class. In the last 20% think about the ideas and concepts that meant the most to you (not unit 1). Try to integrate those things with the content from the unit 13 readings. End your essay with a “most important point” that brings everything together.
