Schindler's List Tips
You have just completed the film, Schindler's List. You are now in the midst of
researching for your digital portfolio. You have the directions, but I'd like to offer
some tips on how to get started writing a great paper (a very valuable paper, too).
Mechanics and style:
1. When in doubt, cite EVERYTHING. Pictures and informational cites should be cited at
all times. It doesn't matter how insignificant you think the cite is, it's better to be
safe than sorry. If any part of your paper is plagiarized, you will earn a zero for the
assignment.
2. Answer the question! Too many students dance around the question without answering
the question. This is NOT a film review of Schindler's List, it is analysis of the power
of prejudice and hate as it pertains to the Holocaust. Please read the assignment
carefully and give your response lots of thought.
3. This is a formal essay. The word "essay" is thrown around a lot, but this must be
your best effort. Use proper grammar (spelling, sentence structure, etc...)
4. The essay should be a minimum of 4 paragraphs with a recommended maximum of 8
paragraphs (an introduction, two paragraphs for A-C and one paragraph for D)
How to attack the project:
1. Find and learn two causes, two events and two consequences of the holocaust. Make
sure you TOTALLY understand all six and you are comfortable writing in depth about all
six. These six aspects will reflect the bulk of your score.
2. Once you have chosen all six aspects of the Holocaust, find appropriate pictures of
all six. These six pictures will be place before or after your essay, NOT IN THE ESSAY!
3. Once you know each of the six aspects of the Holocaust and found the six pictures,
begin writing your essay. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE TO WRITE THE ESSAY!
4. The essay MUST be written in Microsoft Word 93-97. If you have a newer version of
Microsoft Word, you must click "file", "save as", then select an older version of
Microsoft Word. DO NOT USE Microsoft Works or note pad. The finished version of the
essay must be completed by Friday June 3.
5. Even if you don't have a computer at home, you MUST get this done! You have a long
weekend plus class time to get this done. SIMPLY GET IT DONE!
Good luck!
