Research Project Timeline

I appreciate everyone who submitted their bibliography on time. I look forward to seeing Part 1 on BB Vista by the end of this week. It will not be accepted through email, hard copy or next week. Part 2 will be submitted in the same way next week and Part 3 as well as the final before the winter holiday. In the meantime, don't forget your portfolios, due in the box at desk 11, Dec. 13. If you haven't picked up your portfolio yet, please do so now!

Research Project

Choose an artwork which you are particularly interested in and prepare a 500 word research report about it.

Your report should be divided into three parts (150-200 words each part):

Part 1: An overview of the artist, the work itself and the art movement.

Part 2: The social context the work was made in. That is, what was happening in history and politics at the time? How did this influence or impact the work?

 

 Part 3: Analysis: what makes the work

 important/significant/valuable 

 and your opinion of it? 

 Your teacher will notify you of draft

  and final due dates.

You need to include APA referencing and a 4-6 source
bibliography in your report.
