The Poster Presentation highlights the humanities disciplines appreciation of form reflecting content.  The poster can make visible specific rhetorical moves, encouraging us to think not only about our ideas but also how we form our ideas.  You’ll be designing a Poster Presentation based on our readings in Module 1: Natural Imperfections & Human Longing.  You may use the assigned and unassigned readings from your text, Being Human.

This assignment encourages students to practice and perform a variety of ways of thinking:

think creatively about a text, concept, or unit (or several) by thinking of how to present it to others
synthesize varied pieces of a complex concept or text
articulate your thinking in new and self-authored ways
To complete this assignment successfully, you must:

Reflect on the assigned concept, text, or unit, focusing on what you think are its most significant components.
Think of a poster presentation style that represents how you make sense of this concept, text, or unit.
Design and create this poster.  Artistic ability is not required, but clarity of thought and relationships are important.
Write a 400-500 word explication of your poster.  You should interpret the poster for others, explaining the poster and all of its details, with specific attention to how it explains the concept, text, or unit.

THE BOOK WE USE IS “Being Human core reading in humanity” edited by Leon Kass. Chapter 1 is about human imperfection and longing. we used The story of Nathaniel Hawthornr, The Birth-Mark ; Gerard Manley Hopkins, Pied Beauty ;Andrew M. Niccol, GATTACA (also made in movie).  So I attached the story of birthmark .
