Kristi McGauley, American Literature, US English Department

In this project in Kristi McGauley’s American Literature course, students developed “national network broadcasts” as related to their topics in American Lit.  The students were given the following prompt:

“Work in your assigned small group to script and shoot a video news segment about Jefferson’s case that might appear on a national network broadcast. The segment could include any of the following: on-the-spot interviews with the two attorneys immediately after the trial verdict, an interview with Miss Emma, Mrs. Gropé, Reverend Ambrose, or an eye-witness account of the execution from Paul. Your group might choose to combine several segments to make a whole program on Jefferson’s case. Be prepared to screen the video for the class. You will need to create a storyboard, compose and script, and upload them to the WikiProject Page.”
