Directions: First, choose a specific cultural heritage theme related to the immigration experience of Russians in Germany. Themes could include: language, cuisine, traditions, music, art, literature, religion, etc. Next, you will “curate” an exhibition that showcases how immigrants from Russia express their cultural heritage within their living spaces in Germany based around one of the themes from step 1. This will involve creating a virtual display (as a PowerPoint, etc.) of photographs, artifacts, decorations, and other objects commonly found in the homes of Russian immigrants. The exhibition should aim to convey the diversity and complexity of Russian cultural identity within the context of immigration to Germany. Students should consider how the chosen theme is represented, preserved, and adapted by Russian immigrants in their new environment. In addition to the exhibition displays, you will prepare a brief presentation explaining: the significance of your chosen theme, its relationship to the immigrant experience, and any cultural transformations or continuities observed. Format: Each individual student will upload a PowerPoint presentation (or other presentation multimedia) through the assignment submission. Information can be included a text on the presentation or in the form of a “voice over”. Presentations must include at least 10 slides + a title slide and a references slide (12 slides total) Students should cite sources appropriately and must rely on college-level scholarly work but may supplement with their own their own personal experiences and perspectives. Grading: Evaluation criteria include the depth of research, creativity and originality of the exhibition displays, clarity and coherence of the presentations, and the ability to critically analyze the intersection of cultural heritage and immigration experiences. Please see the rubric to understand how you will be assessed on this assignment.
