For your Class Project . . .

For your Class Project, start with a country or culture that you, personally, are interested in. 

Your project can be (but does not have to be) constructing and discussing a Cultural Metaphor on a Country / Culture not covered in the Textbook (or an alternate Cultural Metaphor for one of the Countries / Cultures discussed in the Textbook).

 

You can find detailed information for your class project at <http://www.d.umn.edu/cla/faculty/troufs/anth1095/gcproject.html#title>.

REM: Your Informal Project Statement, or Project Proposal, is due by the end of Week 4, Saturday, 26 September 2015. Basically that’s a short informal summary personal statement of what you are interested in doing, how you think you might go about it, and what resources you are thinking about using. It can be as simple as the following:

“For my project I’m thinking about X, or Y, and these are the items I’m thinking about using [add short list]. This is why I’m interested in this/these project(s) [add your reason(s)]. . . . 

It is an informal statement. A more formal statement will come later on (in Week 6).
