Assignments

Overview Students’ final assignment is to present their work to colleagues and community partners at the SIUE Undergraduate Scholars’ Showcase. Students work in their groups to create a 10-12 minute presentation that provides an overview of their implementation project, how each individual piece fit into the project, and their reflections on CODES. Assignment Sheet

Overview In their author bio, each student decides how to present themselves to their audiences. The bio contextualizes their work on Emplace and helps them frame their experiences and background in relation to the work they’ve carried out. Assignment Sheet

Overview Each student contributes two pieces of content to Emplace. These include a collaboratively authored narrative of the implementation project they carried out the prior semester and an individual contribution, which might be a new or refined piece of content related to the whole.

Overview One of the chief goals of CODE320 is for students to share the work they’ve done with stakeholders, both in the local community and beyond. In the dissemination plan, students identify the audiences they’d like to reach, key considerations, and strategies for reaching those audiences. Assignment Sheet

Overview Over the course of the semester, students reflect on the work they’ve done thus far, the process of revision, and their experiences and relationships in CODES. Assignment Sheet

Overview As each group carries out their implementation project, each individual student produces a piece of content that supports that work, for example, part of an exhibit, a plan for a learning activity, or a run of show for an event. Assignment Sheet

Overview Each student collects and curates a data set related to their group’s implementation project, using methods they’ve practiced in other CODES courses. These might include archival research, annotated bibliographies, surveys and interviews, oral histories, or scientific experiments. Assignment Sheet

Overview At the start of the semester, students work in their groups to revisit their implementation plan and community partner feedback and make a concrete plan for the semester. Each student takes ownership over specific tasks, data collection, and deliverable, and collectively they describe how these pieces contribute to a cohesive whole. Assignment Sheet

Overview Throughout the semester, students reflect on their progress on the project and how they’re building relationships with partners and community members. They’ll return to these reflections the following semester, as they refine and disseminate their work. Assignment Sheet

Overview In their final project, students work in their groups to review and synthesize the data they’ve collected to understand the local impacts of the problem on their community partner and their stakeholders. In response, they develop a plan for a program, resource, or other intervention that responds to that problem. They develop an…
