This project needs to represent your best writing and therefore is not a first draft. All final projects need to include the following elements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Context<\/strong> of your topic and source materials (1 paragraph)<\/li>
  • Literature Review<\/strong>: synthesize what you learned from your readings as the information relates to the context and your team\u2019s research questions. Note anything the scholars don\u2019t cover that you examined in your project. (2 paragraphs)<\/li>
  • Argument\/Thesis:<\/strong> (1-2 sentences in your introductory paragraph)<\/li>
  • Sources<\/strong> used and rationale (1 paragraph)<\/li>
  • Explanation and justification of the analytical techniques<\/strong> chosen (1-2 paragraphs)<\/li>
  • Findings<\/strong> and their significance (~5 paragraphs)<\/li>
  • (Optional) Further research<\/strong>: Provide suggestions for other scholars to build on what you and your team have already accomplished. (1 paragraph)<\/li>
  • Be sure to embed visualizations<\/strong>, any code you\u2019ve used or written and its output, word lists, and any images related to your project. Images might include maps, paintings or sketches of the actors who appear in your sources, etc. <\/li>
  • Citations<\/strong>: Parenthetical citations and\/or linked citations.<\/li>
  • Bibliography<\/strong> of primary and secondary sources<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
