Final Reports

1st of 2 blog post installments due by the last day of class, Apr 24 (but may be posted at any time before then)... 2d installment due May 1. Top 3 run-scorers don't have to do a 2d installment (but may, for extra credit).

Think of it as parts one and two of a single report, with part two including your reaction to any constructive feedback you received to part one. The two installments together should total at least 1,000 words. Emphasis is on quality, not quantity.

Don't think of it as a pasted formal paper, but as two related blog posts on a subject of interest to you. Use links instead of footnotes, include relevant graphics, video, anything that'll make it visually as well as thematically interesting.

Choose any relevant topic (check with me if you're not sure). You may continue to explore your midterm report topic, if you wish. Say why the topic interests you, and if you're discussing a particular philosopher/author say what you do or don't agree with in their thought.

Feel free to be creative with the format and approach. For instance, you might wish to "transcribe" an imaginary conversation between yourself and one or more philosophers/authors.

Comment on at least two classmates' 1st report installments, and document that you have done so: include links to the reports you've commented on, in one of your own report posts.

Have fun!
