Imaginative Geography, And The Perspective Of The Other In Russian Literature, Joshua Wansley '01
Imaginative Geography, And The Perspective Of The Other In Russian Literature, Joshua Wansley '01
Honors Projects
In 1839, the Prince Odoevsky wrote a piece of fantasy, entitled The Year 4338. It was a surrealist forecast of a distant future, and was narrated by the "voiceless one," who purports to be a Chinese student writing from Russia. The world has been divided chiefly between Russia and China in the year 4338. The English have long diminished in strength, and the Americans have auctioned their cities "on the public market," in fact the latter are the only benign menace in this utopian future. Love of humanity is so prevalent that all misfortune has been removed from even literature. …
Code-Switching In The Hispanic Community Of Bloomington, Illinois: A Case Study, Rachel Dziallo
Code-Switching In The Hispanic Community Of Bloomington, Illinois: A Case Study, Rachel Dziallo
Honors Projects
This present case study of code-switching is a quasi-replication of Valdes' (1976) research on code-switching patterns, in which one individual is studied in various conversational situations. In the study carried out by Valdes, the focus was on the presence of code-switching patterns in different situations in order to determine the significance of one native speaker with various interlocutors. By realizing this study she concluded the following: (1) the use of code-switching by the principal infonnant does not suggest a lack of language skills; (2) bilingual speakers take full advantage of rhetorical devices to dramatize their speech; (3) regularity of patterned …
Unity Before Orthodoxy: An Investigation Into Second And Third Century Resurrection Theologies, Sharon L. Stowe '01
Unity Before Orthodoxy: An Investigation Into Second And Third Century Resurrection Theologies, Sharon L. Stowe '01
Honors Projects
This paper will explore three aspects of the previously named theologians (and Marcion, whose ideas are recorded only in others' texts): analogies the author uses to illustrate his resurrection ideas, opponents the text addresses, and as a result of these, the resurrection theology the author purports. Analogies will be studied for the purpose of later demonstrating the unity of those who supported the physical resurrection. The similarities in their language and analogies is in stark contrast to the lack of similarities in the analogies used by those who support a spiritual resurrection.

Second Language Acquisition And Its Practical Application: Evaluating French Textbooks At The Secondary School Level, Jacelyn O'Roark '01
Second Language Acquisition And Its Practical Application: Evaluating French Textbooks At The Secondary School Level, Jacelyn O'Roark '01
Honors Projects
A textbook is an essential starting point for education in a foreign language classroom. That is why it is so crucial that teachers take the time to consider a text extensively. There are multiple textbooks on the market for secondary French teachers from which to choose. What makes a textbook more appropriate for one teacher or one class of students than another? I believe that we must start by looking at some of the information that is available that explains how students learn a second language. Then, it is important to consider some of the ways that the teaching of …
Cabaret: The Design And Production Process, Jennifer J. Owen '01
Cabaret: The Design And Production Process, Jennifer J. Owen '01
Honors Projects
The textbook definition of initial design work breaks down the process into seven basic steps: commitment, analysis, research, incubation, selection, implementation, and reflection. Though it is obvious that a realized design is not as simple as this breakdown, the definition provides a useful starting point for conversation about design. It is important to note that though this model makes the design process appear linear in nature, each of the steps in the process occurs throughout many different phases of the design. I will refer this definition of the design process throughout my discussion of Cabaret.
