Wikipedia Assignment 3: Sketching a Draft

Great work, everyone! Make sure that you take the time to read everyone's post and comment on them.

Here's the list of the guiding questions that will help you formulate the next draft. Some of these questions may be more relevant than others for you.
  1. What stands out the most in your research? Is it history? Number of figures? Important figures? Dates? Representational styles? Communities? Scholarly literature? Connections to historical/social events?
  2. Which scholars/writers have written on your subject? What do they say about it?
  3. What is the significance of this genre in Asian America?
  4. How are you defining "Asian American" in your research?
  5. What strategies are these musicians (or the music industry) using to represent themselves?
  6. Is everything empirical and factually supported?
  7. Is there anything that would fall into another section?
  8. Is there anything that would fall into the introductory section?
Next Wikipedia Assignment Due: April 14, 2009. Plan ahead!
