HUM 200 Project Part Two

HUM 200 Project Part Two Guidelines and Rubric

Overview We all share common experiences that can be generally classified within the major themes of art. Examples of these themes include love, mortality, identity, truth, and beauty. The representation of these themes through various media reveals central beliefs shared by a common people. The comparison of objects from the humanities with similar themes helps to uncover not only the uniqueness of each respective cultural artifact, but also a shared human consciousness that transcends time and place. Your project for this course has two parts. In Project Part One, you will complete an exploration document examining two cultural artifacts that you select, identifying a theme common to both of them and developing a thesis statement related to the theme and artifacts. You will also identify an audience who would be interested in your artifacts, theme, and thesis statement. In Project Part Two, you will develop a presentation for your audience. In your presentation, you will discuss the impact of the cultural artifacts, theme, and thesis statement on both individuals and society, supporting your claims with evidence. You will also explain how study of the humanities has impacted you both personally and professionally.

In Project Part Two, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:

? Illustrate the impact of the humanities on personal and professional experiences ? Communicate effectively to specific audiences in examining fundamental aspects of human culture ? Utilize evidence from subjective and objective cultural analysis in drawing conclusions about the impact of cultural artifacts on individuals and society

Prompt Your presentation assignment should answer the following prompt: Based on your exploration document, create a presentation that explains how the humanities have impacted you both personally and professionally and discusses the impact of your theme on your audience. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:

I. Provide a brief overview of your artifacts, theme, and thesis statement. How are they situated within the domain of the humanities?

II. Explain how the theme, as it is expressed in the cultural artifacts, and thesis statement impact the audience. In other words, how is the theme relevant to members of the audience? Why should the audience care about your thesis statement? Support your response with specific examples from your exploration document.

III. Describe the evidence from subjective and objective cultural analyses that you have to support your conclusions about the impact of the theme and

cultural artifacts on you personally and on your audience. Support your response with specific examples from your exploration document.

IV. Explain why the theme and cultural artifacts are important to you personally. In other words, why did you select these artifacts to study? Why did you select your theme, especially if there are other themes that could apply?

V. Explain how studying the humanities can give you both a personal and professional advantage. In other words, what is the benefit of studying the

humanities?

VI. Explain why the humanities are important to society. In other words, what do the humanities tell us about our own culture and experiences? How do the humanities impact us? Support your response with specific examples from your exploration document and your own personal and professional experiences.

VII. Communicate your message in a way that is tailored to your specific audience. For instance, you could consider your vocabulary, your audiences

potential current humanities knowledge or lack thereof, and what is specifically important to the audience.

Project Part Two Rubric Guidelines for Submission: Your presentation should have approximately 5 to 7 slides using Prezi, PowerPoint, or another comparable presentation tool. Note: If using Prezi, be sure to include a Word document with notes. If using PowerPoint, be sure to include speaker notes.
