WHAT SHOULD GO ON THE HANDOUT FOR MY SITE REPORT?

Several of you have asked me about the format for your handouts (remember to bring 23 copies of each one), so I am sending you the

following guidelines. Remember: you do not have to do it exactly this way... these are just some suggestions. Be creative.

Somewhere on your handout, I want you to put your name, the name of your site report, and "Summer, 2005".

You should put a brief bibliography of important sources, and include the important points about your topic/site/monument (in whatever format

you want: bullet points, outline, sentences, haiku, etc.).

Think to yourself: "What do I want the others to remember about this? What is important about it? When they are back in North America and no

longer seeing what they see now in Greece, what can I include that will jog their memories? What does this tell us about the Greeks? About Art?

About History? Why did we come thousands of miles to hear about this?"

If you have diagrams or pictures that will duplicate well, go ahead and include them, as long as they does not detract from the important facts

you want to include.

Length: Please try to limit your handout to two sides ( 1 sheet of paper, front and back). If you have a compelling reason (diagrams,

pictures, something too wonderful to leave out, etc.), you may attach a second sheet.

Remember: Your report does NOT need to include EVERYTHING you know about the subject. You can put the totality of your learning into your

paper, later. When giving your actual report on site, you want to concentrate on what we can see at the site, and what you want us to

remember about your subject.

If you want to send us an attachment of a draft of a handout, we'll be glad to look it over and give you my reaction... but don't wait until the

day before departure to send it. Thanks!

We're going to have a lot of fun, and learn so much!
