The Life Arts Project: A StoryCorps Documentary

To complete the Life Arts Project requirements of COM105, all students must conduct an audio interview (I strongly recommend participating in a Storycorps interview!). In addition to the actual interview, students will finish all FIVE PHASES of the LAP: 1) select a subject; 2) prepare for the documentary; 3) complete the documentary; 4) complete the life arts project; and 5) present their work. Below is a checklist complete with due dates for each phase of the LAP.

To learn more about StoryCorps or to listen to sample interviews, check out the StoryCorps website. The site contains instructions on how to schedule your interview as well as a Question Generator to help you organize your LAP conversation. The StoryCorps reservation number is 800-850-4406.

IN ORDER TO RECEIVE CREDIT FOR YOUR LAP, YOU MUST TURN IN THIS CHECKLIST ALONG WITH YOUR FINAL LAP ON DEC. 19TH. Simply click the image below for a printable view.

The example of recording for serveliance is medal detectors. Theses a devices that help determine whether or not a child is caring a weapon Ex. a knife, gun, or razor. Fortunatly i am in a school which only scans twice a year.last year the school safty unit came to my school. They started to scan the students there were two knives found. this has been a huge impact on society. this type of serviellance deters students from bringing weapons into the schools. Where this enviroment can be safe for learning. tribble
