Introductory Letter
A popular publishing company just asked you to write a
travel guide about the beginnings and development of the
Humanities throughout the world. Throughout your
exploration in the Humanities this term, you will put together
a travelogue in the form of postcards corresponding to each of
the units. In your travel guide, explain the history and
meaning of what you learned about one site in each unit.
Begin with an introductory letter to your reader. In the
letter, explain the significance of your travels and introduce
the key themes visitors will encounter in your collection of
postcards.
Unit 1 - Front

Choose images from your travels to decorate the “front” of the postcard
(the previous slide). Complete the “back” of the postcard (this slide) with a
description of the culture or site you visited, commentary regarding your
experience, and information about the location and its relevance. Each
postcard should include citations to your readings and any other credible
resources.
Each card must be at least 150 words and incorporate key concepts from
the course. Since citing sources demonstrates your ability to synthesize
information and adds credibility to your claims, sources and images should be
cited on each slide or in the speaker notes area. This includes citing the
readings in addition to other credible sources (using in-text citations and end
references).
