4) The Presentation (during the last two weeks of classes): The presentation should be about ten minutes long, and should be both informative and interesting. Again, it should be designed to communicate the logic of your main idea. It should also explain why your topic is important, i.e., why scholars, including your fellow students, should care about it.
5) The Final Version: This should reflect the best writing and argument you are capable of, and should show that you have thoroughly researched your topic and thoroughly understand it.
