AMERICKA ISTORIJA I KULTURA

TEME ZA PREZENTACIJE
(PREDMET: Americka istorija i kultura)

Za sve one koji nisu bili na uvodnom casu iz AIK, samo da kratko objasnim o cemu se radi. Umesto da se boduje prisustvo i aktivnost na casovima, zbog nemogucnosti da svako dodje do reci jer nemamo casove vezbi, ubacene su ove prezentacije koje nam mogu doneti do 10 bodova.

Ove prezentacije bi trebalo da traju od 10-15min, rade se u grupama koje se sastoje od po maksimalno 10 studenata, s tim da broj studenata moze da varira od grupe do grupe. Takodje nije nuzno da studenti koji formiraju jednu grupu budu iz iste grupe (A, B, V, G) upravo zbog toga sto ce se prezentancije odrzavati na predavanjima. Sve teme bi trebalo da budu obradjene.

Detaljnije informacije mozete dobiti na konsultacijama kod predmetnog profesora dr Zorice Đergović-Joksimović.

Teme su sledece:

1. Christopher Columbus
2. Pocahontas / Native Americans (the Indians)
3. Thanksgiving Day
4. George Washington
5. Independence Day
6. Abraham Lincoln
7. The Flag
8. David (Davy) Crockett
9. The Frontier
10. Andrew Carnegie / John Rockefeller
11. Thomas Alva Edison / Nikola Tesla
12. Hollywood
13. Walt Disney / Disneyland/ Mickey Mouse
14. Music: rock ‘n’ roll, blues, country music
15. John F. Kennedy

Zamolila bih vas da se za teme prijavite po sistemu po kojem smo se prjavljivali za predmet UVOD U LINGVISTIKU, time sto cete ostaviti komentare na ovom blogu, a ja cu proveravati blog svakog dana da ne dodje do preklapanja.

Rok za prijave nije odredjen, ali bi bilo bolje da se to odradi sto pre radi boljeg pripremanja prezentacija.
