#CorruptionGirl: Plan contra la corrupción #LeyMeade

CAR: Partial Project 1, The Whaaat Collaboration (due February 2)

Due: Before midnight on February 2, 2018.

Description: Are you familiar with "Whaaat?", the world-renowned Youtube show about historical concepts and applications? Its creator is now looking for collaborators! If your proposed video gets made, you will appear in the credits and have the option of appearing in the video itself. It all depends on how effectively you explain and apply a concept from the class, and how creatively you are able to deliver this information through Francisco's voice.

Instructions:

In teams of 2 to 3 students, you will write the script to an original Whaaat video. Your script should:

1. Be no longer than 750 words and no shorter than 400 words.
2. Explain a specific concept from the class that does not appear in any of Whaaat's existing videos. Concepts from last semester may be picked. For this part, sources are crucial. They don't need to be mentioned in the video's monologue, but they need to be cited in the script.
3. Apply the concept in a fun, creative, but most importantly, clear way. The application may be a description of real-life events, a hypothetical event, or both. 

Upload one script per team to Blackboard before midnight on February 2, 2018. E-mailed, late, individual, and incomplete projects will have a zero.

The script will be graded as follows:

Rubric
The script includes the specific intro (“Hello, I’m Francisco, and this is Whaaat, the show were you can actually replay what I say in history class”) and outro (“I hope you learned something. See you next tim!”) to Whaaat videos.	10%
The script clearly defines a concept from the class. This concept should not be already covered by an existing Whaaat video.	35%
The script clearly and creatively applies the concept that was previously defined.	35%
The proposed video fits with the vibe and creative elements of other Whaaat videos.	10%
Word limit: 400-750 words.	10%
	100%

CMAC: Partial Project 1, Gladiators in Suits (Due February 2)

Due date: Before midnight on February 2, 2018.

Description: Politicians have problems and we are here to fix them. We are fixers, we are gladiators in suits. But first, you need to become familiar with the battleground in this very important election. Why? Because you must have the proper tools to fix a candidate's problems and carry them to victory. We don't pick parties, we make parties. We don't criticize candidates, we make them. If there are scandals, we handle them or use them to our advantage. What's it gonna be? Are you a gladiator in a suit?

Instructions:

In teams of 4 or 5, you will be assigned a political party (PRI, PAN, PRD, Morena, Movimiento Ciudadano, or PVEM). You must create a 1,000 to 1,500-word document and a Sway presentation where you:

1. Describe how your political party was created, who was its founder, and what have been its results since it was created. Who are they and what have they delivered to Mexicans?
2. Make an ideological assessment of your party. What ideology do they follow? Are they congruent with it? Justify your answers with evidence. For example, do its candidates follow a certain ideology? What about its lawmakers? What social issues do they care about?
3. Identify your party's prospects for the 2018 presidential election and any others you may point out as being particularly relevant. Use evidence to justify your assessment.
4. Identify the safe states and the battleground states for your party in the 2018 presidential election. Where are they likely to win and why? Where do they have the potential to win and why? Where is it extremely unlikely that they might win and why?

The Word document should carefully describe these four points, using sources in APA format. The sources and the cover page do not count towards the word count.

You will also make a Sway presentation with this information for your classmates to be able to access it in the future. 

Before midnight on February 2, 2018, upload your Word document with a link to your Sway presentation to Blackboard. Projects that are late, e-mailed, individual, without the team's names, lacking in sources, or incomplete, will be given a zero.

The project will be graded as follows:

Rubric:
Word document has the four points that were requested in the instructions and answers them with proper conclusions out of reliable sources.	25%
Word document has a main idea, a logical explanation of it, and a logical conclusion.	25%
Sway presentation gives a quick and easy run-through of the analysis in the Word document.	30%
Word document has between 1,000 and 1,500 words in total.	10%
Sway presentation has a maximum of 8 slides and a cover page with the team’s members.	10%
	100%

Teams are as follows:

PRI	Paulina Francisco Tristán Lorena Ulises Omar Arellano
PAN	Tania Eliza Rebeca Ana Sofía Omar Mora
PRD	Bruno Gómez Gala Carla Pacheco Bruno Sánchez
Morena	Rafael Sofía Daniela Kevin Alfredo
Movimiento Ciudadano	Santiago Qamra María Espinosa Ameyalli
