The resources on this page have been specifically curated to assist you in completing your final project.
The “Helpful Links and Tutorials” section provides information to guide you in general research strategies and practices—keys to successfully conceiving and researching your topic.
“Journals” gives you direct links to numerous academic journals in rhetoric and communication where you may find relevant and compelling articles.
You may also want to refer to our Carmen modules devoted to Short Paper & Final Project Resources and Supplemental Course Materials for more guidance and opportunities to practice your research skills through optional Concept Exercises in lateral reading, research as inquiry, and scholarship as conversation.
Reminder: Your final project is an extended analysis of a contemporary rhetorical settler, secrecy, or digital artifact or phenomenon using one or more central concepts or methods of analysis studied during the term. You’ll also be situating your analysis and argument in terms of other scholars’ work, finding, integrating, and citing in your project sources from beyond those we read this term. Those additional sources will comprise the informing framework for your analysis and contribution to the scholarly conversation about your artifact.
The academic journals listed below are among the most relevant to the study of rhetoric and may be helpful starting points for your background research for the Final Project.
