Is this a credible document to help us determine how Fidel Castro viewed the United States?
Analysis: After the reading the headnote, the first thing I am going to do is read the source note [read source information.] As I source this document, I notice the date. In February 1959 Castro had just come to power and was probably working to establish his rule. Eisenhower had recognized the new Cuban government, and Castro was traveling to the U.S. a few months later, in April. Neither side had taken a firm stance toward the otherthe relationship was very new. Furthermore, I notice that this interview was done with U.S. newspaper editors. That makes me wonder if he is trying to get some good press in the United States. Now that Ive thought about the context in which this interview was given, as I read the interview Ill want to think about how this context might have affected what Castro said about the U.S. This process is called contextualization. Is this a credible document to help us determine how Fidel Castro viewed the United States? Given what I know so far, it may be, but because it happened so early in Castros presidency, it might not give us a really good sense of Castros true beliefs because hes still working to establish his power, and he may be engaged in a public relations campaign here. Hes not sure how the U.S. is going to treat Cuba, and he might want to establish a good relationship with a powerful neighbor. As you read the interview, think about how the context in which the interview was given might have influenced what Castro said.

Over the course of week seven, you need to take a photo of (5) different visual arguments you encounter throughout your week. These visual arguments need to be taken from stimuli around you but 2 of the 5 can be screencaps of arguments you experience online, but no more. The goal is for you to notice visual arguments around you, I dont want to just see popular online visual arguments that you looked up inorganically. These 5 occurrences of visual rhetoric need to use both verbal and visual elements. Analyze each images argument first by pointing out the claim(s) the visual argument makes and then explain how you came to that conclusion.

The Final Project Proposal is a written submission in which students identify and discuss the issue(s) surrounding their chosen themes/topics and propose a program, initiative, or activity that will address those issues. For example, a student from a previous semester chose the theme of Climate Change and Natural Disasters for his project package. For the Final Project Product Proposal, he discussed how climate change affects agriculture in South and Central America. Within the proposal, he identified the issue and causes, prior attempts and deficiencies in addressing the issue, and proposed the solution of enhancing global awareness through art (making information pertaining to climate change more appealing and interesting for a targeted audience).
