For your Final Project in this class, you will be picking a fictional character from T.V. or the movies and try to best apply what was learned in class by diagnosing them. The main purpose will be to make a case for the diagnosis you choose. You will be handing in a presentation (PowerPoint/Google Slides) with links to YouTube to back up your proposed diagnosis along with a written paper.
For this assignment, you will be doing the groundwork that will allow you to later write your paper and create your presentation You should choose your character and then do a YouTube search to ensure you will be able to back up your diagnosis with video clips. You do not need to have an actual diagnosis at this time, but you should at least have something in mind. As you go through our class, you might change your mind about the diagnosis and you can include this in your paper.
Submission Guidelines
Please submit this assignment with the following questions answered:
What is the name of your character and in what movie/show where they were featured?
What do you think the diagnosis will be? Why?
Is there anything you think might come into play in this character’s diagnosis, such as cultural background or setting?
Did you find enough clips on YouTube to make the case for your character?
This submission should be at least 150 words and citations are not necessary unless you are drawing information from outside of our class or you are directly quoting. It is important that you do not select a character who is already diagnosed on the show unless you are planning to present a different diagnosis than what is already known.
