3 What goes into the final analysis paper for my Log? The final part of this assignment will be the creation of a formal, one (1) page, typed analysis paper, which will help to sum up your Log and also to try to make some more concrete connections to the material we have discussed in class. The format for this formal, one (1) page, typed analysis paper is presented below: Name of Student Course Teacher Due Date Paragraph #1 (Introduction to the Assignment) o Purpose of the Assignment o Requirements for the Assignment o News sources / other materials used Title of Paper Paragraph #2 (Overview of the big news stories of the semester) o Were there any themes or common characteristics between your news stories or were they a diverse mix of topics? o What were the top three big news stories of the semester in your opinion? o Why were they so important or newsworthy, in your opinion? o How did these news stories affect the world around us or how did they affect your community directly?

4 How will the end-of-week Current Event Quizzes work? At the end of each week, students will be asked to review and apply critical-thinking skills to an end-of-the-week quiz that covers the major news stories that we have discussed in class as a way to promote critical thinking and deeper understanding. All the current event stories we discuss in class are posted on Mr. H s website under Video Current Events and can be accessed throughout the week for review, along with guiding questions. o If you miss a Current Event Quiz, you are responsible for making it up. All past video / news stories are archived on Mr. H s YouTube page Student should think critically about the following criteria when studying for this quiz: 1) What is the basic plot of the news story (who, what, where, when, why, & how) 2) Why is the story newsworthy? Why should we as Americans be concerned with it? 3) Does the story relate to any past news events / materials we have discussed in class What types of questions can I expect on these Current Event Quizzes? Questions will revolve around either open-ended response questions dealing with specific aspects of the news story or a deeper interpretation of the event. Examples are listed below: 1) This week saw a number of big political party primaries across the state, including the Democratic mayoral primary in Harrisburg. Why are people unhappy with sitting Democratic mayor, Linda Thompson? Explain. 2) In the end, Eric Papenfuse won the Democratic primary. What is Papenfuse s connection to the city and what appeal does he bring to a future administration? Explain. Questions may also revolve around an interpretation of a political cartoon and how it relates to a new story discussed in class. An example is listed below: 1) Based on the current events we discussed this week, please explain in your own words what story this cartoon depicting and why it is newsworthy? 2) Knowing what you know about this current event, what is the major concern being raised by the cartoonist by this image and is it justified? Why? Explain? 4
5 How will my articles be graded? At the end of the semester, your current events journals will be collected and graded according to the following rubric. Those grades will then be added to the total points for the course. Your entries will also be checked for completion each week: o Each week = 20 total points o Typical month = 80 total points The rubric that will be used to grade your Log at the end of the semester is planned on looking like the rubric below: Task Description Points Received Points Possible Format Writing: All format requirements are followed as listed above All entries are organized in the binding of a notebook or folder 30 points Opinion / Original Thought: Original ideas are presented in thoughtful and intelligent manner with format requirements present 40 points Neatness / Presentation: Articles are included with the write-up on the back Neatly typed or handwritten on white paper or with the assigned template.
