30%

AT2 Oral Presentation (2-3 students will form a group to deliver a 25-min presentation around clarifying a key term based on readings and relevant illustration.)

10%

AT3 Group Project (a creative effort in groups of 5-6 where students use non-linguistic visual material to illustrate a key term—such as 'postcolonial', 'image world', 'aura', etc.—in a form/at of their choice; the resulting work will be viewed in-class during the final tutorial, followed by 15-20 minutes of Q&A per group to better motivate creative choices.)

10%

AT4 Term Paper (an in-depth 2,500 word analysis of an example of visual culture using relevant terms and academic sources; the term paper will be due end of term at the latest, but an initial topic idea and outline, including at least three relevant sources have to be submitted online for feedback Week 9.)

40%

AT5 Key Reading Reflection (a written response, including necessary extracts from primary and possibly secondary readings, unpacking and contextualising one of the key texts covered; the written response itself should be at least 500 words in length, not including quoted material, and students may choose Sontag, Benjamin, Mulvey, or Jameson readings from the outline—if they did not present on the connected topics; spanning more than half of the course, students may submit as early as Week 6 and up to Week 11.)

Academic Honesty

You are expected to do your own work. Dishonesty in fulfilling any assignment undermines the learning process and the integrity of your university degree. Engaging in dishonest or unethical behavior is forbidden and will result in disciplinary action, specifically a failing grade on the assignment with no opportunity for resubmission. A second infraction will result in an F for the course and a report to University officials. Examples of prohibited behavior include, but are not limited to:- Cheating – an act of deception by which a student misleadingly

demonstrates that s/he has mastered information on an academic exercise. Examples include, but not limited to:- Copying or allowing another to copy a test, quiz, paper, or project;- Submitting a paper or major portions of a paper that has been previously

submitted for another class without permission of the current instructor;- Turning in written assignments that are not your own work (including

homework);- Plagiarism – the act of representing the work of another as one’s own

without giving credit:- Failing to give credit for ideas and material taken from others;- Representing another’s artistic or scholarly work as one’s own;

- Fabrication – the intentional use of invented information or the falsification of research or other findings with the intent to deceive.

To comply with the University’s policy, any written work has to be submitted to VeriGuide.
