Topic Brainstorm

Project #3

The three topics I have chosen to potentially use for project number 3 are :

       1) Choose a reading. In your project, consider the following - I am interested in this project topic because it allows you to go back in time and use historical facts if you choose to. I do not have much previous knowledge in doing any project like this, so I think it would be a good challenge. I would like to learn how to tie a story of my choice back to an economical or historical event and learn new concepts as I go. A strength I will bring to this project is my dedication and knowledge of historical events that I may be able to tie into this one. The first two projects will help me with this one because I already know the concept of the project, what is expected, and the mistakes not to make again.

       2) Choose a reading selection. Explore relationships between the elements of the selection, For example, how does setting influence character development? - I am interested in this project topic because it directly relates the story with a character and talks about how certain things in that story can shape a character or outcome. The previous knowledge I have on this is the analysis we do each week when we talk about theme and characterization and how it plays into the story we read. I would like to analyze a story and understand how certain things cause a character to do something. A strength I will bring to this project is my hard work and my goal of completing the project with a good grade.

       3) Think about a theme you see running through your life. Choose a reading that you think also discusses this theme. - I am interested in this project topic because it allows me to relate a story directly to my life. The previous knowledge I have on this is whenever I have related something to directly to my life and compared it. I would like to analyze a story and see how much of it relates to my life or things that have happened in  my life. A strength I will bring to this is my personal stories and feelings.

  1. Hi Logan. I think all three of your possible topics are great, but what is your book of choice? I think the third choice will be very personal, I would not choose that because I would not be comfortable posting it for the class to see, but I think this topic may not be that hard since you can write about your personal experiences, but then you have to have similarities with the book you chose. I think that is something to consider if you do pick the third choice you have listed. The first topic you have listed seems kind of difficult. Do you know if your allowed to use other sources besides the book, like online sources? For your second possible choice have you thought about the elements in the book? I think this topic will require a lot more analyzing and it seems like you are comfortable with that. Would you write on one specific character from the book? Good luck on any topic that you choose. I am so excited that this is our last project! Thanks for sharing.
