The White Tiger

Fact ya Fiction?

Breakdown

This project will assess your understanding of The White Tiger and allow you to reach out to the local community. The full project will be worth 100 points total:

20 points: your individual contribution to your group’s efforts

To assess this, I will look at your explanations of your involvement in the project, as well as the quality of your section of the final project. I will also look at your use of public speaking techniques that you’ve been developing the past several years (pacing, eye contact, volume, expression, etc.).

30 points: the overall effectiveness of your group presentation

To assess this, I will ask these questions:

1. Does the project meet the goal of holding up a community member’s experiences to Balram’s experiences?

2. Is the presentation organized so that it’s easy to follow and understand?

3. Does the presentation hold the audience’s attention?

50 points: your individual composition and argument (the letter)

To assess this, I will ask these questions:

1. Does the letter make an argument about Adiga’s text (whether it’s accurate or not)?

2. Does the writer use good reasoning and evidence in putting forth his or her claim?

3. Is the letter structured logically?

4. Is the letter written well?

Please do notify me if you have problems with your group members in collaborating on this project.
