The central assignment of Senior Seminar is an extended, independent research project. You
will produce an original, high-quality research paper for this project. You have already selected your topic related to modernity and/or life in today’s world for this project, and made a thesis and outline. You should that ensure your paper is led by a central
argument made in dialogue with scholarly literature you have sourced; your paper should
not merely be a descriptive essay “about” a topic. Make sure to integrate course ideas and readings within your paper to demonstrate
your understanding of modernity as a theoretical, historical, and political concept.
First Draft Paper
The first draft should be approximately 6-10 pages in length, excluding footnotes,endnotes, and bibliography. Although it is considered a “first draft” you should write this draft as if it is your finished paper. You will then receive feedback after you have submitted your first draft, and you will then make the necessary changes to it so that you can submit your final draft.
• It should use at least 10 academic sources in the paper, excluding readings from the syllabus.
• Format your work carefully. In particular, all references and quotations should be cited within the essay using a standard referencing style, such as APA, and a bibliography should list all sources you have used in the paper.
