Tour of Dallas
(15% for each Team Report grade).
Final Written Team Report Due 22 May
Instructions:
This is like a visual “treasure hunt” in which you need to “spot” items on the list. You document your “sightings” by the descriptions (and optional pictures) you provide in your Team Report (5 pages double spaced). Beyond the mere “evidence” the Report should contain an “analysis” of the overall experience and what it tells you all about Dallas and its diversity.
To receive full credit, your Team must select at least two (2) of the three (3) Lists and complete at least 16 (16) of the 20 (twenty) items for each list. [Note: you must not "mix and match" items among all three Lists].
The routes you follow for each of the Lists selected are to be of your own design. You should include (in an appendix) a map that shows your actual routes and their sequences. Note: this field assignment should be done in teams of three (3) or four (4) persons, although you may wish to find a non-class member to serve as a designated driver for the team. Also, keep in mind that you can do the assignment in parts on different days, as your schedules permit.
You may collaborate with other Teams in selecting items and in designing your route, but each Team is responsible for its own observations and written report.
You will want to consult maps and other guides in designing your route and in gathering data about the items BEFORE you carry out the assignment.
Note: the SMU Honor Code applies to your work on this assignment.
