Field trip report | History homework help
For week six you have a field trip and report assignment. Contrary to what the instructions say in the instructions, there is not a detailed rubric for this assignment. Rather, you are to visit a religious service from a religious tradition different than your own and write about your experience and observations. The only exception I allow on this assignment is for visiting a Protestant Church if you are a Catholic and vice-a-versa (not merely visiting a church from a different Protestant denomination. Please see the basic instructions below.
Sincerely,
Dr. Scott Edgar
For this class you are required to visit a religious site not your own. This could be a synagogue, a Christian church, a mosque, or a temple. The purpose of this trip is to report on what you saw -normally a religious service—and how it compares to your own religious upbringing and/or current practice.
The report should give a description of the site and a detailed summary of the religious service. Describe what you observed. What were the material expressions of the service (statues, paintings, music, etc). Was there anything special going on that day (e.g., baptisms)? If there was a sermon, analyze it. In brief, make it “up close and personal.” Conclude with your personal reaction to this experience.
This paper should be at least three (3) pages in length (1050 words) with proper APA formatting. This includes proper documentation. This is a formal academic paper so pay careful attention to the basics of writing a good English composition.
