Research an AAPI Project Overview Final

Assignment

You will need to write a brief biography of their life in your own words, apply course texts to specific aspects of their life and career, and argue for their contributions to and/or influence on Asian America. Your project should also include at least one picture of the person(s) you’re researching. Other visual aids, such as PowerPoints, are optional, but may enhance the presentation of your project.

Research and Sources

EVERYONE needs to do research for this project.

Required Sources (at least 4 total):

· at least two sources from readings on our syllabus

-at least one must be from KAAS

· at least two outside sources

-at least one should be a scholarly article from an academic, peer-reviewed journal. The scholarly article does not need to necessarily address your figure directly, but must be applicable to an aspect of their life.

Word Limit, Format, etc

The entire assignment should be 1000-1250 words (4-5 pages). You should maintain objectivity in your project and write in the third person (he, she, they). You should cite the sources when you paraphrase or directly quote material. I prefer MLA citation and formatting; MLA information is available on Canvas in the “Course Information” module. Please include a Works Cited page, or you may include the Works Cited entries below the last line of content.
