In the days leading up to our September 27 class, we’ll prepare a collaborative slideshow on Google Slides. Each of you will be allocated seven slides: a title slide; a slide for each of the five elements of your project sketch; and a wildcard slide to use however you want 🙂 You’re welcome to incorporate images and experiment with design, if you like! When you share your work in class, you’ll each have five minutes to synopsize your project, leaving significant time for feedback.
After we discuss your individual projects, we’ll talk about how to build and translate your annotated bibliographies into literature reviews – and how that synthetic work can help you more critically assess your theoretical and methodological options. And we’ll close by discussing our collaborative Methods Toolkit.
Also possibly of interest: We’ll be discussing qualitative methods, like interviews, next week, but this Thursday, September 28, at 6pm, the Kelly Writers House is hosting an event that could provocatively foreshadow next week’s discussion: In “An Interview About the Interview,” KWH director Al Filreis interviews Victor Bockris, who interviewed myriad figures in the New York punk scene for Interview magazine in the 1970s and 80s.
