CONVERSATION PLAY: THE RULES
Each week (get started right away!), play each video fully (or repeatedly) and read ALL required readings listed above in their entirety, then post your responses using the prompts below (due Friday, September 13 at 11:59pm.).
CHECKLIST (minimum 500 words total)
Explain, in your own words, how the video (V2) is related to the reading by restating a claim made during the video (time code exactly where this happened; for example, V2: 0:00-0:03) and showing evidence where this claim can be supported or refuted in the reading in TWO instances using TWO different fairy tales. Cite the last name of the author and page number where this occurs (Scalise Sugiyama 4); for online articles without page numbers, cite the section and paragraph number; for example: (The invention of fiction, par. 3). (minimum 250 words).
Choose one video image or still frame within Video 2, time code when that occurred, and explore how it “narrates” a particular history of gender and power in the United States and the world abroad. How does this video image represent a form of “resistance” and “revelation”? (minimum 250 words).
Bonus: How are gender and storytelling possibly shaping our current political election? Cite evidence.
NOTE: Early bird catches two tenths of a point (which adds up to 2% of your grade if your complete assignments early four times)! The first ten students to COMPLETE ALL FOUR PARTS of this assignment will receive +0.2 points credit for embracing a solid academic routine (maximum +1.6 points total for the semester)! To make sure you complete each part, list them accordingly by number (such as CP1, CP2, CP3), complete one a time or all at once. Each response will only be considered complete if ALL PARTS are done, and completed with clarity, precision, and creativity.
The central purpose of our Conversational Play is to create an ongoing dialogue that is:
DYNAMIC: You post focused, informed, and thoughtful responses and examples that show your curiosity for the topic of Humanities. You share your own stories as well as bring in clear and precise examples from ALL our multimedia clips and readings to support your statements while helping other students in a compassionate manner.
TIMELY: You take initiative and post a response weekly well before the deadline or when you’re inspired. You take risks even if your responses don’t come our perfectly. You don’t wait until a few hours before the assignment is due or wait for others to post first. You take pride in what you create.
RELEVANT: Each week, your goal is to apply what you learned from the multimedia clips to ALL of the varied readings, while integrating outside evidence from trusted academic and field research to support or refute their claims. Think of the multimedia clips as a springboard to investigate and interrogate storytelling more deeply in the required readings and your outside research. I don’t expect you to “get” everything you’ve read, but I’m holding you to the higher standard of exploring storytelling in a much more complex, nuanced, and academic manner beyond simply taking what you’ve consumed at face value using authoritative evidence from a wide range of trusted sources.
