Top Ten (ATTN CREATIVE INSTRUCTOR)

DUE 2 MAR 15 BY 6 PM EASTERN TIME

WORD DOCUMENT PLEASE

Select the two best examples of art, music, architecture, philosophy, and literature from the Enlightenment period. 

Select the two best examples of art, music, architecture, philosophy, and literature from the Romantic Age. 

Create a Top Ten list of the examples you chose for each period. Your list should be numbered 1-10. Your list should also be ranked in the order you believe each example best represents the period.

For each example on your list, include the creator’s name, the title, and the date,  e.g. 1. Joe Smith, The Birds of Song (1973). 

Write a brief introduction for each Top Ten List providing a description of each epoch – the Enlightenment period and the Romantic Age – and an explanation for how your team decided on the examples you included in your list.

Write a rationale of 25 to 50 words for the ranking that you gave each example. In writing your rationale, consider how well the example you have chosen reflects developments in world events and cultural patterns of that time period. Note: You should write a rationale for each example you choose, not a summary or description of the example. 

Submit your Top Ten List as a Microsoft Word document or as a Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation.

Format your responses consistent with APA guidelines. Note: You must use your course text as a reference for this assignment. This means that you should include quoted or paraphrased text from your readings to support your response to, and discussion of, the assignment questions. Course readings should be acknowledged with an in-text citation. If you need additional sources, use the University Library. If you use the Internet to find sources, you should only access credible and reliable Internet sites such as those affiliated with a museum, magazine, newspaper, educational institution, or arts organization, for example. You should not use sites like Wikipedia, About.com, Ask.com, or blogs, for example.

Be prepared to share and discuss your Top Ten list with the class. In order to receive full credit, all team members must be in attendance and participate in the discussion.
