SUMMARY ANALYSIS: 1000 to 1500 words

DUE DATE: November 18th, 2015 at the beginning of the JSA Lecture.

Each student will describe his or her own research experience in a paper of 1000 to 1500 words, due in class on November 19th. This paper will describe how your knowledge and perception of your Analytical Methods Project topic has changed over the course of your research, and conclude with a discussion of three unique nonfiction sources from outside the SS101 syllabus that you found particularly insightful and enlightening. These three sources must be quoted and analyzed in the paper itself, and framed by a careful analysis of which single source and related social science discipline (e.g. Anthropology, Economics, History, Social Psychology, etc.) did the most to change your thinking about this topic, and why. All quotes and fact claims in your paper must be duly cited, using either the MLA or Chicago format.
