CAR 303: Final Project, Elle Conflict & Reconstruction (Due April 30)

For this project, you will create a commemorative edition of Elle magazine based on a topic from the class.

Each edition of Elle should have:

1. A cover with the proper logo and a human subject that is related to the topic, and
2. At least one 500 to 600-word article per person.

For the articles, you may choose to write either one of the following options:

1. A feature article about a specific perspective on the topic itself.
2. An interpretation of an image that represents the time period.
3. An account of an exclusive (fictional) interview with a historical figure or a character from the novel belonging to each topic where you use the novel as a historical source to explain a perspective on the topic at hand.
4. An account of a real interview with someone that experienced something in your time period.

Each team will have a team leader who will plan the magazine and make the final decisions on the direction of the design and how the topic is covered. The teams will be as follows: 

Elle Edition	Topic	Team
United Kingdom - January	Industrial Revolution	Eduardo Ángeles Ian Vanessa
Mexico - February	Mexican Revolution	Cynthia Daniel Núñez Santiago Avril
Soviet Union - March	Russian Revolution	Sabina Santiago Copado Elías Fernanda De Luna
Germany - April	German Revolution (1918)	Ana Fernanda De Luna Teresita Elías
Cuba - May	Cuban Revolution	Gilberto Santiago Ravelo Adolfo
Hungary - June	Hungarian Revolution	Eduardo Santoyo Diana Ruiz Alexa Leonardo

Each team in every group has to turn in one cover per team and at least one article per person. The project should be turned in on Blackboard on Monday, April 30, 2018, before midnight. Late assignments, articles without sources, and e-mailed assignments will be graded according to the situation.
