Observation Reports --> Worship & Food Culture

During the first half of the course, the Worship Report describes your observations and interviews among participants at a local worship site. During the second half of the course, the Food Culture Report describes your observations and the stories of those who sell you food from a local farm, and your experience of sharing that food with others or eating it in solitude. These reports also relate your observations to those documented in related course readings. You write for a peer (vs. a specialist) who is unfamiliar with the topic, since half a dozen student observation reports will be assigned as readings for application exercises in Units 2 & 4 and for the final TRA.

Really *REALLY* Major, Incredibly Important Reminder That You Really Should Read NOW

(This is NO JOKE!)

As noted in the course content site, I will generally elect severe penalties for academic dishonesty: a **ZERO SCORE** for the assignment, and *FAILING THE COURSE* for a second offense. Inclusion of material from uncited sources--including an internet site or another student's paper--is the most obvious form of plagiarism in paper writing.You are responsible for reading my comments regarding the importance of academic honesty, and my no-tolerance policy for incidents of dishonesty, in FAQ #10-13; as well as for requesting clarification if there is anything you do not understand.
