Citations The fun part about a multi-genre project is that the sky’s the limit: you can build poems (haikus, sonnets, free-verse), you can take photographs, you can paint, you can write songs, or make videos.

Citations The fun part about a multi-genre project is that the sky’s the limit: you can build poems (haikus, sonnets, free-verse), you can take photographs, you can paint, you can write songs, or make videos. And you can take from other sources. What is important is that you ACCURATELY CITE that source.

Citations For your sources, I expect to see MLA citations. This will be in the form of a “works cited” section on the bottom of your main page.

A Recap Your final project will utilize a minimum of FIVE genres.

A Recap Your final project will utilize a minimum of FIVE genres. I highly recommend you cull from already-existing sources for at least one of these genres. Speaking of “culling” – the work we’ve done in class may be useful. You’ll notice many of our essays and work have been geared towards identifying good and evil as well as heroism. An academic essay IS an example of genre!

An academic essay IS an example of genre! Your best bet will be to mix – 2-3 that you create, and 2-3 that you find. Five is a MINIMUM – I expect most of you will have more. You stop building genres when your definition is complete, not when you’ve met the minimum.

What I do expect to see is the definition you pulled from another link as well as your impressions for how it’s “incomplete”. I also expect to see you tell me what qualities you focus on (heroic qualities, the fight your heroic archetype is engaged in, etc) and how each genre you show me illustrates this!

A minimum of five genres which accurately, and creatively, tell me how you view the heroic archetypes of the 21 st century. A “world-view” approach to heroism – thinking American firefighters is great, but this is a narrow view in many ways. Look at the qualities of this and approach it in a world-wide scale.
