Each group must choose one of the following papers (or excerpts of text) for their presentation\/written work combo. There is enough choice for every group to do something different, so we will work on a \u201cfirst tell Carl choice, first served\u201d basis. Consult your group and make a choice, then email me quickly to ensure you get the topic you want.<\/p>\n
Remember that you are being \u201cexamined\u201d on your ability to draw out the central claims and conclusions, and the movement from claim to conclusion (i.e. the ARGUMENTS) in the text\u2026you are then required to evaluate these arguments and to give supporting\/counter arguments where appropriate. So you must clarify the stance being taken in the piece, and then take your own stance on it. This can be done, as previously discussed, any way you like (visual aids, drama etc) as long as it is clear what you are up to.<\/p>\n
