Instructions
You are required to attend a co-curricular activity or watch a documentary related to American politics, then write a report. Either choice (activity or film) is acceptable, so long as it is related to U.S. politics and your instructor approves it. You must contact the instructor no later than two weeks before the paper is due to obtain his/her approval. Here are some examples of what would work:
- Watch a documentary, series episode, televised political debate, or movie related to a topic in our class. Some examples include an episode of "House of Cards" (Netflix subscription required), a live parliamentary debate in the House or Senate via C-SPAN, or the PBS documentary "Trump's Takeover" (free on PBS);
Based on your selection, write a 2 ½ - 3 page (650-1,000 words) report that includes:
- a summary of the co-curricular activity or documentary,
- how it relates to this class, and
- how you feel about it.
This assignment is 100 points, so it carries a substantive weight of about 20% of your final grade. Keep the following guidelines in mind to avoid having points deducted from your work:
