DIRECTIONS FOR TEDTALK ASSIGNMENTS:
At several points in the semester you will be assigned to watch and write about 5 TedTalks (TT) related to marriage and family. These assignments are meant to be fun and engaging and require you to type up something to submit in Canvas. In order to do well on these assignments, follow the directions below.
Type your first and last name at the top of your document.
Watch the TT assigned in its entirety (range from 7 -25 minutes).
While watching, look for something that the presenter says that you feel is particularly noteworthy and quote it at the top of your document. Use quotation marks.
After the quote, skip down a line or two and then, using your best college writing, connect the quote of the presenter to something you learned in a chapter in Cohen. To make this connection, provide a quote from the chapter. Use quotation marks. Cite Cohen like this: (Cohen 13) in your writing.
Finally, explain the connection you make in another 5-10 sentences (the quotes do not count). Tell the reader why anyone should pay attention to this connection. If the connection is relevant to your own life, it is okay to provide a personal example in your writing.
Double space your writing in the document.
Each TT assignment is worth 100 points.
