Each week you will be required to submit a media “round up.” You will be responsible for finding and thinking about one item relevant to human biology. This may be a news item on a recent medical study, a podcast on human evolution, or even a movie or TV show.
Each of the Media Critiques you write is expected to demonstrate critical thinking: you should aim to draw on knowledge you have gained throughout your Human Biology major to more carefully reflect on contemporary issues from the world around you.
Structure your Media Critiques by answering the following questions: Article Title, Author, Publication, Date, Site, Link, etc.
What was interesting about this piece? Why did you choose it?
How did the piece relate to your own knowledge and/or your course work?
Was the piece flawed or biased in any way?
Were biological and social phenomena integrated into the piece?
Did the piece change your thinking in any way?
