Read one article from the online academic journal Game Studies and prepare a
5-10 minute presentation about it. To participate in this extra credit
assignment, you must follow these steps:
- Email Brendan with 3 articles you would like to report on, in
order of preference. I encourage you to look through the archive and
choose an article that interests you.
- After you get your assignment, read the article carefully and
prepare a 5-10 minute presentation for the class. Your presentation
should give the class an idea about the general argument of the
article--what was the author saying? How did they support their
argument? You should also include your own assessment of the
article--did it convince you? Did it have major gaps or flaws? What
insights did you gain from reading it?
- Presentations including handouts or visual aids will receive higher scores.
This extra credit presentation is worth up to 20 points, and will
be given in class.
