Culture Repair Projects
The Culture Repair Project asks you to analyze one of the assigned historical records of Asian practice, paying attention the interaction of the three elements of culture. You then draw on what you learned to write and/or draw a set of instructions that could be used to facilitate the similar activity described in the relevant scenario. You have three opportunities to complete a project, one for each unit; the two highest scores count towards your grade.
Researching a Scenario Activity
This assignment provides you with a direct experience of whichever scenario activity you choose to focus on in each of your Culture Repair Projects. For each scenario activity that you choose, you will either (1) visit a local event or site related to the practice or by (2) engage in something similar to that practice by yourself or with one or more others.
IMPORTANT: The scenario activity you chose to research should be one that you feel you can recommend to the City Repair staff, which addresses the goal that the staff is trying to achieve, as articulated in the relevant scenario.
