NEW Sorry to bother you movie

Paper 3: Revision & Expansion

Goals
To practice revision of existing material.
To practice expanding existing material.

Overview
Expand paper 2 to 2,000-2,100 words by considering the Afrofuturistic characteristics of one or two characters in Sorry to Bother You and explaining how those characters relate to a current societal need or to current societal pressures. Before you start this expansion project, it would be good to review the readings for paper 2 and maybe even watch the movie again.
To start consider which characters inspire you or trouble you, or maybe which character you can relate to, or one that provides an important lesson. Then list the ways that character is Afro-Surreal. Then think about what needs the character is responding to, and follow up on your thinking by researching those needs. As you explain how your character is Afro-Surreal, you should quote Millers manifesto, and you should definitely explain your quotations, as they can be quite difficult to interpret.
Note that this paper requires you to use the sources listed below and one additional source you have found using Academic Search Complete.
Your final paper should use (and document) these sources, as well as one new, useful source you have found using Academic Search Complete.

First Listening Journal

Keeping a listening journal will encourage you to think critically about your listening habits and skills. You will describe and analyze your listening behavior by recording a minimum of three listening experiences in journal form. You should record a variety of listening experiences (professional, personal, academic, social, and so on) in which you listen for various purposes (specifically discriminative and comprehensive) and at various levels. This assignment will include a minimum of three entries (one discriminative entry and two comprehensive entries) AND a concluding summary. These entries should reveal your understanding of the discriminative and comprehensive listening purposes and demonstrate your ability to apply the concepts, principles, and techniques presented in the course. Your entries should be rich with concepts, principles, terminology from the assigned readings (from your course content readings and the readings found in the course discussions). Verbal and nonverbal aspects of each listening experience should be shared.

Each journal entry should be a minimum one full page in length, single-spaced, with one-inch margins, and a size 12 Times New Roman font. You may be over the page limit (no more than a page and 3/4 per entry), but not under. There are significant deductions for being under.

Include the following information in an organized manner (using subheadings for each) in each entry:

Date of listening experience
a detailed description of the listening experience (including where, who, what, how, and so on) with an emphasis on the verbal and nonverbal aspects of the episode
your purpose(s) and behavior as a listener (this is where you clearly emphasize your role as a discriminative or a comprehensive listener -keeping in mind that comprehensive listening also involves some discriminative listening, but your entry should primarily focus on the higher listening purpose even if some discriminatory aspects are mentioned)
a descriptive evaluation, supported by specific examples, of your strengths and weaknesses as a listener
what you learned about your listening -including how you might address your weaknesses
Thus, your submission will have the following subheadings (single space all subheadings):

Entry #1 (1-3): Comprehensive Listening Entry (or Discriminative Listening Entry)

Date:

Description of Listening Experience:

Purpose and Behavior as a Listener:

Evaluation of Listening Strengths and Weaknesses:

What I Learned About My Listening:

You should submit one discriminative entry and two comprehensive listening entries and a descriptive 1 page (minimum) concluding summary. This assignment is VERY similar to the listening journal part II, but each focuses on different listening purposes. A formal introduction is not necessary for this assignment. Begin with your journal entries and finish with your concluding summary. Your concluding summary should be an overall evaluation of what you’ve learned about your listening. Reveal both specific details and “the big picture.” Also, include how you will work for improvement in both listening purposes.

Grading Criteria – First Listening Journal

entries should be rich with concepts, principles, terminology from the assigned readings (it should be clear that you have read course material and you are able to apply what you have learned)
