you should prepare:
• A top-level analysis (not a summary) of the day’s reading. Your analysis should
be a brief synthesis of the “so what?” questions raised by the readings. In other
words, how do the readings fit into the course as a whole?
o NB: Presentations that are merely a restatement of the readings will not receive
credit.
• Multiple (at least three) examples of the applications and/or implications of the
day’s readings in examples from contemporary media
• A PowerPoint to guide your presentation
