Student Criteria

Our final project is about the effect of male media representation on boys. If I had students working on this same topic, I would have them collect examples of media representations of men, discuss the examples in class, perform research on their own, and then write their own analysis. Their writing would be evaluated on being able to draw specific connections between their example piece of media, class discussions, and their research. It should contain an example or quotation from each of the three. It should also contain a unified theme or opinion, backed up by evidence, that the student wants to convey to their audience. Finally, the writing should be well-organized, well-written, and free from errors.
