Project Guidelines

You will create an illustrated essay introducing, analysing, and contextualising an artifact related to the topics we will cover in class. Examples of artifacts include, but are not limited to: objects, print materials (newspapers, diaries, books, letters, etc.), a place, and a work of art. Your individual pages will compose a collective public scholarship exhibition, which will be published in the course UBC Wiki Page. We will build these pages throughout the semester.

Project Proposal: 300-350 word project proposal explaining the topic you wish to research, what artifact you will focus on, and why you chose this particular topic and artifact. The proposal should tentatively state your research question/s, describe why it matters to you, and explain how the topic is relevant to the course content. It should also list at least two sources from the weekly modules that might inform your project, explaining the selection. Revised Proposal/ Audio-visual Annotated List (Midterm assignment): This is a revised, more formal, and informed version of your proposal. It should clearly define your research question and working hypothesis. (350-450 words). You will also submit an annotated list of images and other audio-visual elements you will include in your illustrated essay.

Illustrated Essay

Your illustrated essay should include:

  • A 1200-1500-word text introducing, contextualizing, and analyzing your artifact.
  • A source list containing at least 10 primary and/or secondary sources
  • At least 5 images
  • At least 1 Audio-visual component
