Multi-Genre Project
Multi-Genre Project (45% of course grade)
A "multi-genre" project blends genres and sub-genres so as to make a more multivocal, more complex "text." The project invites you to identify, grapple with, and answer a critical question about textuality that you have discovered based on your readings, class discussions, and other assignments. In answering that question, you are building theory about text in a series of genres.
