Building Community at Baruch: Step 3, due Sept 28 & Sept 30
This is the third step designed to help you, and later your team, discover the need/challenge that you will explore throughout this project. This crucial step will help you get ready to form your team. (You will be assigned to a team of 3-4 students in early October.)
Assigned: Monday, Sept 21
Step 1: Secondary Research
Due: Posts due before class on Monday, Sept 28
Find five articles/videos that relate to specific historical, current, or even future events that illuminate 5 different questions about community at Baruch. These questions might be relevant to your own life, or might address aspects of Baruch with which you are not familiar (either way, there are pitfalls! Be wise, don’t generalize!). Each article/video should somehow address a different challenge related to “building community at Baruch”. Share your 5 articles/videos by posting links and a one sentence synopsis for each link on the course blog. Be ready to discuss your findings in class on Wednesday, Sept 30
Step 2: Review of Research
Due: Prior to class on Wednesday, Sept 30
Read through the articles/links your classmates’ posted for Step 1. You will not be able to participate in class if you don’t do this critical step.
