WEEK 4 (due Feb. 17)

>>> NEXT CLASS: Feb. 17 <<<

1) ORAL PRESENTATIONREAD CLOSELY THIS INTRODUCTION TO YOUR ORAL PRESENTATION.

Click HERE to chat with a chatbot designed to assist you with this assignment. You can, for instance, ask the AI assistant to perform a 'risk assessment' to identify potential risks that could negatively impact this project. 

2) PLAN, DESIGN & RECORD: WITH YOUR PARTNER, [1] PLAN YOUR PRESENTATION (by completing this worksheet), [2] DESIGN YOUR POWERPOINT SLIDES, AND [3] RECORD YOUR AUDIO TRACK.

SUBMIT YOUR WORKSHEET & VIDEO FILE (not a .ppt file) TO MOODLE, IN 'ORAL PRESENTATION.' 


You may use AI only to assist you in determining the best sequence for presenting the various points of your presentation. This corresponds to the "Principle of Organization" in the worksheet.

You may copy ChatGPT's response, word for word, into the worksheet. Clearly indicate that the chosen principle of organization and its rationale were generated by ChatGPT.

During your oral delivery, make sure to refer to this principle of organization every time you transition to a new graphic element. 

See the specific guidelines and prompt on Moodle in the 'AI Section.'


3) SUPERHERO VIDEOS: WATCH THE THREE MOVIE SCENES BELOW FROM SUPERMAN:THE MOVIE (1978) & CAPTAIN AMERICAN: THE FIRST AVENGER (2011).

THESE SCENES WILL PROVIDE A BASIS FOR OUR MOST IMPORTANT DISCUSSION NEXT CLASS.

AS YOU WATCH, THINK ABOUT WHAT THESE SCENES SUGGEST ABOUT THE WAY AN OUTSIDER SHOULD BEHAVE TO RECEIVE SOCIAL ACCEPTANCE (what the outsider should and should not do, and what kind of person they should be).

THINK OF THE VILLAIN AS A PERSON WHO REFUSES TO CONFORM TO THIS SPECIFIC WAY OF FITTING IN AND WHO, AS A RESULT, IS EVENTUALLY EXCLUDED FROM THE COMMUNITY.

ALSO THINK ABOUT THE COMMUNITY THE OUTSIDER WISHES TO JOIN. HOW DOES THE GENERAL POPULATION BEHAVE TOWARDS THE OUTSIDER? WHAT RESPONSIBILITIES DOES THE COMMUNITY HAVE IN THIS PROCESS OF INTEGRATING THE NEW CITIZEN?

If you have questions regarding these films, please use the general forum "Questions for your teacher."

4) MOODLE FORUM (one post): ANY TIME BEFORE OUR NEXT CLASS, ADD ONE MAIN POST (at least 200 words) TO THE MOODLE FORUM ON 'SUPERHERO STORIES.'

Read very closely the instructions at the top of the forum thread, and make sure to develop your preliminary analysis by referring to specific details in the three videos you just watched.

This submission is the second completion task in the process of developing your first essay. Process tasks will account for 33.33% of your final grade for the first essay.


I'm looking forward to watching your videos & talking about superheroes with you!
