Culture popular Modern

This course, you explore and contribute readings to the class dialogue about popular culture. Each week’s Learning Resources provide a foundation for the week’s topic. During the weeks with discussions, you will also find articles on topics related to each discussion. For the discussions in Weeks 3, 4, and 6, you are encouraged to use the article you find as a source for your response. In addition, you post an annotated reference to the article into Doc Sharing. As the course progresses, you and your colleagues build on the class bibliography. You may also draw upon this list of student-contributed resources for the Final Project.

This week, you download and complete the Student-Contributed Resource Worksheet from this week’s Resources area. This Assignment is designed to help you find articles or resources that both meet academic requirements and enrich the course dialogue.
