    Short Story Presentation: (300 points)

    The following is an individual or partner project. (2 - 3 people in a group, no more than 3) Assignment: You will choose a story from one of the selections below and read, analyze, and write a short research paper on it. You will present and discuss the topic chosen for the short story to the class. The presentation should be 6 7 minutes, and you can design it with Power-Point, create a poster, or some other visual that is relevant to the topic to accompany the presentationyou can be as creative as you wish. You need to decide what you will focus on beyond the plot and analyze the story based on the criteria of your research. Although understanding the plot of a story is necessary, I expect students to consider other literary elements in conjunction with some elements of horror to create an interesting analytical discussion of the story. Any paper that is merely a plot summary will receive 0 points.

    The paper must include evidence from the story to prove your point and not merely general summaries. This is a short paper; limit your topic The paper must be:
    approximately 500 - 800 words MLA documentation word processed double spaced one inch margins title your paper (be creative with thisdo not use the subject as a title) number your pages Submit the paper to Turnitin on the due date, 17/11. Papers not submitted will not be graded. Turnitin information Class ID: 6835380, Password: shortstory13

    Presentation 6 7 minutes (no longer than 7 minutes) Begin with a brief summary of the story and then explain your analysis Please note: This is a presentation; you should not read the information from your paper, instead, use note cards. BEWARE: Hard copy of the paper is due at the beginning of class on 17/11; presentations will begin at the start of class. If you are late, you may not be able to present and your paper will be late.
