Scenario 1: Jessica
Jessica is a 22-year-old Mexican American who moved from Illinois to attend college in California.
Lately, she has noticed that the majority of her Hispanic classmates are able to speak both English and
Spanish fluently, and most speak Spanish to each other in her Chicano studies class and socially.
Jessica’s parents spoke Spanish at home but did not insist on their children becoming bilingual. For this
reason, Jessica understands Spanish when it is spoken to her, but she does not speak it fluently.
Jessica has found that she feels more comfortable and relaxed in classes where most of her classmates are
white rather than in her Chicano studies class, where she does not share the experiences of the other
Hispanic students. This realization has upset her, and she has come to you for advice.

Written assignments are designed to help you analyze the reading. Simple restatements or summaries of ideas will not be accepted. What does this mean? You are expected to interpret and analyze what you have read and express that analysis in your own words. It will be tempting to respond to a question by giving me an exact quote from the reading. Only use quotes in support of your own ideas. Remember, it is only a quote if you use quotation marks and cite your sources. If you do not use quotation marks, it is plagiarism. It may also be tempting to do outside research and respond using the words of another person. This is also plagiarism. Plagiarism or cheating of any kind will not be tolerated. Plagiarism is defined as copying words or ideas and presenting them as your own work.
A NOTE ON A.I.:
Any work written, developed, created, or inspired by artificial intelligence (AI) is considered plagiarism and will not be tolerated. All assignments will be submitted through a program called “TurnItIn.” This program identifies plagiarism, AI-generated information, and “humanized” AI-generated information. While new developments with AI will find their place in our workforces and personal lives, in the realm of education and learning, this kind of technology does not belong. A.I. robs us of the opportunity to learn from our experiences and from each other, to explore our creativity, to problem-solve, and to contribute our ideas in authentic ways. College is a place for learning, and this class is specifically a space for learning how to improve critical thinking skills. AI simply cannot do that learning for us.
Students caught using AI, plagiarizing, or cheating in any way, will receive an “F” for the assignment or exam. You may read about DVC’s academic integrity policy. This assignment is worth 6% (or 6 points).
I do not deduct points for spelling or grammar mistakes (although I often correct them – I can’t help myself as a teacher), but please make an effort to proofread your work. 
I will be giving you feedback on each written assignment. Please learn how to access this feedback.It will be an important part of preparing for the tests.

Reflect on the article, the paper should be approximately two double-spaced pages (You are always welcome to write more). Demonstrate both your understanding of key concepts and reflect, critique, apply, and synthesize material including how this might apply to you. Typically a reflection could include a brief explanation of some key concept as described in the reading and then your reflection, which could include a critique, application or integration. Once you have established that you understand the concept or theme, it is fine to bounce it off your own experience or explore how it might apply to you, to the world at large, or to better understanding some idea. Each reflection paper is due on CourseDen as assigned below. No late papers please.

You are going to find paintings by the following artists, and then you are going to create a text conversation behind it. Create a conversation between the artist and someone else 
they may know, OR create a conversation between the individuals in the actual painting, 
explaining what led up to the scene in the painting. You can use the fake text message 
conversation creator here: https://ifaketextmessage.com/ or if you have another 
application you like better, like Canva, thats fine too. 
You must create a conversation for THREE of the following artists:
– Caravaggio
– Artemisia Gentileschi
– Bernini
– Jan Vermeer
– Rembrandt
– Diego Velasquez
– Peter Paul Rubens
– Nicholas Poussin
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Pick one of their paintings or sculptures that speak to you and create a text conversation
based on that image
2) The conversation should be at least 4 messages per person (4 imcoming and 4 
outgoing), but more is fine. 
3) Include the image of your paintings (identified with artist and name) and the image of
your text message in your submission (one document is fine).
4) You can be as creative as you want, but just make sure I can read what you wrote. 
HERE’s A EXAMPLE: By the way, Caraviggio killed a tavern boy because he delivered an 
artichoke to the table. At the time, artichokes were only for peasants and a sign of poverty.
Caraviggio was angered because he thought the boy was saying he was poor. So I have 
Caravaggio talking to a friend with the painting being “What Happned” when the artichoke
was delivered. See where I’m going with this?
Please look at the uploads I have added for an example view. 

The Tampa Bay area has many active community theaters.  For part 2 of the research project, research and write about one local community theater. It must be a small theater organization, preferably a non-profit organization.  Larger theaters like the Straz, Ruth Eckerd Hall, Patel, Ringling will not count for this part of the project.  If you have any questions whether or not you chose a community theater, please e-mail me.
In 3-4 pages, discuss:
What is the history of your chosen theater? How did they get started?  How has their theater evolved over the course of its history?  What are the goals of the theater?  Who can be a part of the theater?
What kinds of plays does the theater produce? Is there a current play being produced and shown?  If so, what is the play about?
Research reviews about the theater and/or its productions. This can be a critical news review or something on social media or Yelp.  What do the reviews say about the theater or performance?  Does this make you want to see a production at the theater or be part of the theater’s community?  Why or why not?
If you can see a production, awesome! Write about your experience at the performance.
Then, choose one area in an area in the US other than Florida and one area in the world outside the US where community theater is performed.
What is the history of each of your chosen theaters? How did they get started?  How has their theater evolved of the course of its history?  What are the goals of the theater?  Who can be a part of the theater?
What kinds of plays does the theater produce? Is there a current play being produced and shown?  If so, what is the play about?
If you can find reviews, what do the reviews say about the theater or performance? Does this make you want to see a production at the theater or be part of the theater’s community?  Why or why not?
How do the theater communities outside of the Tampa area compare to what you learned about the focus on theater in the Tampa area?
