Summarize in writing the key points of the discussion(s) you had with one or more experts. This summary should be included with the essay and should be separate from your essay. After the faculty interviews, search for at least one more article using search terms that came from your discussions with faculty. Summarize this final article using the same format as in step 2 above and submit the 3rd article summary with the other 2 article summaries and the Connections essay From all the information you gather, compose and submit a 3-4 pg essay (1inch max margins, font size 12) explaining the ways you think your “other” discipline (History) might inform or impact oceanography in some way, and/or the reverse. In what ways have you learned that the disciplines can connect and in what ways can people from “other” disciplines benefit oceanography and/or oceanographers can benefit “other” fields? When people from different areas work together to solve a problem or complete a project, what special things seem to happen when those 2 disciplines intersect? I will be looking for your use of some science content in the paper! Use examples from the articles you summarized and from the discussions you had with faculty. Also include with the essay all the other components of the packet described above and summarized in the list below. All components of this assignment should be submitted Components of the Connections paper packet that should be turned in
? 3 article summaries
? Interviews summary
? Connections essay
? Complete reference citations
Your packet will be graded for (more details will be provided): -quality & completeness of article summaries given the required components in step 2 above -clarity of the points you make in your essay
-clarity of connections you highlight between oceans and your “other” in the essay
-inclusion of ocean concepts from the class -appropriate use of examples from your articles to make your points
-logical organization of your essay
-completeness of your reference citations
In your essay, you are encouraged to include diagrams, pictures, graphs etc, but if you do, you must provide a caption beneath each that explains clearly why each is included and you must discuss the relevant info from the visual aids in the essay. And they cannot count towards length of your essay.
Please be careful not to use full article summaries as a significant part of your essay; students in the past have made this error. You write the summaries so that they can help you formulate ideas about connections between oceans and “other.” When you use information from your articles, in the essay, you should cite or footnote the articles in the essay
