Use this link to submit the Google Site/Adobe Spark/WordPress link for either Option A, Oral History, or Option B, Museum Topic. The website should have at least 1,000 words of texts, which comes out to about 3-4 double-spaced pages on a Word Doc.
Directions for Option A, Oral History:
The Oral History Creative Narrative should be divided into different parts to highlight the story of the interviewee. The website should be written in a creative format (Diary, Journal, Newspaper Article, Online Posts), incorporate your relatives’ interview answers, and effectively tell their story, while using at least one research article / book / approved website that is incorporated into the creative narrative. Make sure to create a Work Cited page to show which resources were used in the Oral History Creative Narrative.
Students should complete the following steps:
Use your 1-2 page interview transcript as the foundation for the website.
When you create the website remember that it should reflect the experiences of your relative, as well as the time and place they lived. Chose the point of view and writing format that will best tell the story of your relative.
Include at least one research article / book / approved website into the narrative.
Have fun 🙂
Tell a story:
You are telling the story of your relative and you want to present this in an interesting and creative way.
Make sure to incorporate the exact wording from their answers as much as you can so their voice and personality is clear in the paper.
Please do not just list all of the questions you asked and your relative’s answers, make sure to tell a story.
Depending on the interview answers, you can tell a longer story or a just part of your relative’s story. For example, if your relative talks a lot about a particular time period or part of their life, you can write about just that part.
Be creative:
Find an interesting way to tell your relative’s story.
Please do not write an essay-style paper.
Choose a point of view and format for your paper.
Point of View (POV):
1st person POV – you write the paper as if you are your relative, using their answers to the questions you asked)
3rd person POV – you write as a narrator and talk about your relative’s story, using their answers to the questions you asked
Creative Paper Formats:
Newspaper Articles
Short story

Diary/Journal Entries

More citations the better. When in doubt, cite it out.

Citations
In academic writing it is important that citations are properly given as a way to: 1) give credit to the original author’s ideas and 2) to inform the reader where the information came from. Here are some examples of properly citing from a textbook:
Direct quote:
“About 12,000 years ago (around 10,000 BCE), a fundamental shift occurred in the way humans produced food for themselves—what some scholars have called an agricultural, or ecological, revolution” (Worlds Together, Worlds Apart, 22).
As you can see, there are quotation marks (“”) around the material taken straight from the textbook, Worlds Together, Worlds Apart; which is followed by the textbook title in abbreviated format and the page number from where the quote can be found. If the material being quoted is more than two sentences, then the writer should paraphrase the material in their own words while still providing proper citation.
Indirect (paraphrased) quote:
According to the textbook, around 12,000 years ago a shift occurred in the ways humans produced food, which is called the agricultural revolution (Worlds Together, Worlds Apart, 22). During the same period a warming trend occurred, which allowed for a wealth of plants and animals to be exposed and domesticated by early humans (Worlds Together, Worlds Apart, 22).
This paraphrased quote is citing two sentences from the textbook and provided proper citation material: textbook name, followed by the page number.
Proper citations are also required when quoting, directly or indirectly, from lecture PPT slides and primary sources (either from the textbook, textbook reader, or on Canvas).
You can also use the author’s last name followed by the page number:
During the same period a warming trend occurred, which allowed for a wealth of plants and animals to be exposed and domesticated by early humans (Pollard, 22).
As long as the reader, me, knows where the information is coming from, then using either title or author is ok with me. Please do not stress on the minutia or small details of MLA or Chicago Style, as long as the information presented in the Website is clearly from the Work Cited page, then I am happy.
