Local Geography “Place Paper”

  1. You will need to pick a local place. This can be very specific, such as “My Families Land” or a little more general, such as “Salmon Creek Community” Geographical features can also be chosen, such as “The Eel River” or “Gillem Butte.” Keep in mind that broader topics, such as “The Eel River” will have far more information on them than extremely localized and remote locations.

  1. Your report should follow the following rough outline. Deviation from this outline is fine, as is mixing up components, but in general this is what I am looking for in each report.
1.     Introduction
2.     Body
a. What is the place you are talking about? Why is it important? What is its modern context?
b. Why do we care? What is the history of this place?
c. Physical Geography influences. Weather, climate, etc.
d. Cultural Geography. Who has lived here thru the ages? How have they interacted with the place?
3.     Pictures. You will need a minimum of three illustrations in your paper. These can be maps, diagrams, photographs, hand drawn sketches, and charts, as well as any other visual. The criteria are that you need three, but each one must be from different genera. I do not want three of the same thing.
4.     First Person Interview. You need to find a person that has been in the area that your report deals with for more than 20 years, and interview them about your topic. I will need to see the dated interview, and how you incorporated it in to your report. If you have trouble finding someone, come see me.
5.     Conclusion.
6.     Bibliography. This will follow the same format as the previous report. APA formatting guidelines can be found here http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/05/. I will provide examples of proper citations upon request. Here is an example:

Book: Jans, N. (1993). The last light breaking: Life among Alaska's Inupiat Eskimos. Anchorage, AK: Alaska Northwest Books.
Website: The Sea Turtle Restoration Project homepage presents a wealth of compelling, well-researched information on the struggle to save the world's sea turtles from extinction (http://www.seaturtles.org).
A complete list and examples of how you should cite different materials can be found here:       http://www.umuc.edu/library/guides/apa.shtml
Although is would be nice if it were, this is not an exhaustive guide to your report. There should be questions about how you should write your report. Please come ask me them. Thank you, and have fun.

September 27th. Rough draft due. Following Thursday: Final Draft.
