Creative Project Assignment
Due Wed. Oct. 24. In class

This assignment asks you to create something that is not a written argument on paper, but that nevertheless shows a thoughtful and original response to one or several works you've read for this class.  Projects should aim to draw on a unique strength or interest of yours, whether from another academic field besides literature (e.g. history, psychology, sociology, communications), from the fine arts, from design and engineering, web work, games, etc. 

What you will turn in must  include

•  1-page written summary of why you chose the project and what you aimed to show with it
• the project itself:  the form of the rest of the project will be up to you. The project may be in the form of creative writing (fiction, poem, play, comic strip); web page(s), power-point files, programs, animation(s), film, video, visual art, music, 3-D model, clothing design.
