In-Class Presentations

All students are required to give a short presentation on a topic of their choosing. You must sign up in advance and topics are first-come, first-served. Presentations should be between 15-30 minutes. You will be required to meet with me the day before your presentation, so that my lecture and your presentation do not overlap.

Presentation Topics

• Mini-lecture on how to produce your own Anime
• Mini-lecture on drawing your own manga strip
• Japanese war-time atrocities
• Slash science fiction in the USA: Does Kirk love Spock?
• The communist threat to American comic books
• Doraemon around the world
• Otaku-dom in the USA
• others TBA

PS: Feel free to suggest presentation topics.
