- I would be needing a research propsal for the paper
The final research project will be a self-reflection based on what we learned this semester. You should consider the issues that we covered in class and write a reflection that centers your own experience with these issues and the history of Africa in general. Among other important aspects, you should consider the following for your self-reflection:
– What were the most useful things that you learned about Africa?
– How did the course material, lectures, and class discussion change or reinforce the way you see Africa and the wider world?
– In what ways do you think this course challenged you?
– How did the course material, lectures, and class discussion speak to and/or contradicted your values/concerns as a scholar, global citizen, and/or person?
Think carefully about these questions and submit the following:
1. Come up with a tentative title for your self-reflection.
2. State an argument, and then describe briefly how you will prove your argument. Having a clear argument will help you craft the right outline/organization for your project. Finally, explain what you anticipate would be the major takeaways from your self-reflection.
3. Provide a list of 10 primary and/or secondary sources that you intend to use in documenting your paper. Feel free to use the readings for this course.
