For your final project, I expect students to build on the final project identification assignment to describe what they have done and found. I'll expect every student to give both:

* A final presentation (see instructions on  [[/Final presentations]]) {{forthcoming}}
* A final report that is not more than 4,000 words.

Each project should include: (a) the description of the community and challenge you have identified (you are welcome to borrow from your Final Project Identification assignment), (b) a description of how you would use the course concepts to address the challenge in question.

You will be evaluated on the degree to which you have demonstrated that you understand and have engaged with the course material and not on specifics of your community. Your audience is people who are interested in the community and the general public. A successful project will tell a compelling story and will engage with and improve upon the course material to teach all of us—that is, an audience that includes me, your classmates, and students taking this class in future years, how to take advantage of online communities more effectively. The very best papers will give us all a new understanding of some aspect of course material and change how I teach some portion of this course in the future.
