The idea of a prospectus is to explain what you plan to do, so for this assignment you need to explain to me what you are planning on doing for your periodical paper and presentation. Your prospectus should be in MLA format and at least one page. Because this a provisional document, you can of course change your topic completely. I recommend letting me know if you so that I can give you feedback on your new topic. Here are questions your prospectus should answer:

• What articles in the issue you have chosen are you going to write about?
• What cultural issue/ idea are you going focus on?
• How do the articles relate to that issue/ idea?
• What topics do you plan to research for your three secondary sources?
