Today in class, Mr. Rivers discussed the senior paper. He gave us a schedule of when certain points of writing the paper are due. The first step is to construct a revised one sentence proposal for the topic of your senior paper. The assignment also wants scholarly evidence consisting of three to four sentences, a brief description of the film, and in 200-300 words explain why your paper is relevant to your scholarly community.  The assignment is on google classroom and is due Wednesday Jan. 25th. Mr. Rivers gave us class time to start the assignment and to ask questions. As of right now, I am thinking of doing a scholarly paper on concussions and will use the movie Concussion to gather information for my paper. My paper will focus on the seriousness of concussions and explain that the public is not completely aware on the severity of them. The paper will bring to light on the misconceptions of concussions. The assignment will help you figure out what assignments have the best amount of articles written as the homework forces you to do research. Also the schedule of the checkpoints has been posted to google classroom.
