For this assignment, you will write a research project of at least 1500 words on a topic of your choice that is connected to the class theme of “Monsters.”   Approaches:  Historical: Look at a real-life dictator, serial killer, scientist, social network, etc. and do an analysis of the coverage of the person.  Scientific: Look at modern science e.g. cloning, Crispr, genetic modification etc. and decide whether that type of science is creating modern heroes or monsters. Current events: Do a deep dive on a current event like border control, politics, make-up, sports, and analyize whether your topic is helping society or harming it?  The Steps: Pick an issue related to the broad theme of “monsters” that interest you e.g something from the class or Frankenstein’s Cat. (The topic I chose is about Jeffrey Epstein) Narrow down the topic to something you can cover in 1500+ words e.g. “Is it ethical to conduct cloning research for profit?” or “What modern fear does the monster in Birdbox represent?” Read articles and books, and watch some media clips that interest you on that topic.
