| Class presentation:
Students will share their analyses of the topic chosen for their paper with their classmates. Presentations should be 15 minutes long (12 minute presentation and 3 minutes of questions), and include short clips of the work you have chosen to discuss (if appropriate). No power point can be used. Please limit your plot summary to two minutes. You should address the issues in the above list with the other 10 minutes and be sure to include the critique both of the health issues and the media issues.
ASSIGNMENT #2 – Presentation of small group creative exercises.
Each group comes up with an idea about a game, TV show, animated program, or documentary.
Paper to be turned in at presentation.
Participation:
Students are expected to attend all classes (lecture and discussion). To receive full points for participation, students must demonstrate active involvement in the class.
Policies:
Make-up exams/presentations – There are no exams in this class. A change of schedule for presentations can only be obtained by written permission from the faculty one week in advance of the designated time. No exceptions will be made.
Due dates – The paper and presentations will be scheduled at the beginning of the semester by mutual agreement of faculty and students. Each student will sign a presentation sheet that commits him/her to present at the designated time. Failure to present at the scheduled time without written permission of the faculty for change of date will result in zero points being assigned for the presentation. Papers are also due on the day of presentation.
Attendance – Your participation, and therefore the extent and depth of your learning, depend on your regular attendance in this course. Please notify both the instructors ahead of time if you cannot attend class.
Academic dishonesty – Academic dishonesty on exams, quizzes, and assignments is grounds for failure in the course (see USC catalog).
Students with Disabilities – Please see the following web site for information for students with disabilities: http://www.usc.edu/student-affairs/asn/DSP/ldpack.htm
