Hi Rodney
These dates would be a bit difficult for us at Keele since we start on the
first week of October. These might be more workable for my class:
> orig Sept 20 (Oct 7)- Student propose topics by posting them online, or
else by
> joining a topic group proposed by someone else
>
> orig Sept 25 (Oct 14)- Groups are finalized by your Professor, if groups
are not
> complete already
>
> orig Sept 31 (Oct 21)- Topics are finalized by discussion within the
group -- what to
> study and how the various schools / students will study it
>
> orig Oct 3 (Oct 28)- Students identify their own particular research
site -- whether
> for service learning or case study; students also identify literature
> informative for their research
>
> orig Oct 10 (Nov 4)- Project design complete by the group -- at this
point,
> everything should be prepared for realizing the project, i.e., the overall
> structure will be drafted, literature (al least preliminary) will be
> found, locations and concrete partners will be identified, etc. This marks
> the start of the fieldwork or research by students, if not already so.
>
> orig Oct 31 (Nov 18)- Intermediate report on the project
>
> orig Nov15 (Dec 2) - Final report on the project launched on the web and
presented in
> the universities.
Do you think this is still workable?
