Writing Homework Help

Analyze a piece of cultural production using the concepts we learn about in any one week of the course up to the that point (Weeks 2-6). The essay should be 750-1,000 words long and make an argument about the meaning of the piece of culture expression in question. Examples of subjects you can analyze include a film, a photograph, an art exhibit, a video game, a magazine story, a tv series, an advertisement, or a social media phenomenon, though you are not confined to this list. In addition to the materials assigned for the week that you have chosen, engage with at least one academic source (article in a peer reviewed journal or a book written by a professor) and two popular sources (non-academic). Use the APA citation style.

Grading is broken down as follows. For completing the assignment within the necessary word limits, the student will receive 60pts. The remaining 40 points will be divided into four categories:

• conceptual literacy — engagement with class materials that shows an understanding of the concepts from that week and an ability to apply them, 10pts
• argumentation — the ability to structure an argument in a way that is logical and threads through the entire paper, 10pts
• outside research — the ability to bring research and outside materials to bear on your argument, 10pts
• clarity of writing — writing the paper in an engaging way such that its points are clear and compelling, making nuanced points without sacrificing clarity, 10pts.
