Description
This assignment involves the preparation of an essay that evaluates the
portrayal of the specified family issues or situations in a specific medium in
terms of whether or not the portrayal is realistic. Findings from the
literature should be used to support what you say about whether or not a
particular aspect of the portrayal is realistic. Do not search for articles
that discuss television or the media. The literature should tell us about
the reality of family life or a family issue.
Remember to carefully proofread your paper. Using a computer spell
checker is helpful, but spell checkers will not catch all errors. Also remember
to carefully follow APA format on the reference page and when citing references
within the body of the paper. You do not need to list the medium (television
show, movie, book) that you are evaluating on the reference page. The medium
also does not count as one of the five required references. When referring
to the medium within the body of the paper, just capitalize the first letter of
each word in the title and either enclose the title in quotation marks or
italicize or bold the title.
See the media critique instructions that include the marking rubric and
the file "Media Critique Information" that was included in the course
announcement on November 5th for more information and some examples.
