HOS 220 – Course Project

Suggestions on where to obtain information:

i. Speak with SNHU’s reference librarian;

ii. See the related Project PPT with suggested sites for the region’s and/or country’s information.

1. The project is completed in two sections:

i. Section IA, regional overview and section IB, country research will include both an extensive written and oral presentation, one assignment for the entire team;

ii. Section II, cultural introduction which will be an oral presentation only, is related to the specific country chosen and separated into topical areas (cultural folklore, cultural food, cultural initiation, cultural phenomena and/or cultural ritual). Each student will choose a different topical area. For example, cultural folklore will be completed by one student, cultural initiation by another, etc. If a team is comprised of four people, there will be four separate presentations.

2. The project must be researched, current and relevant.

3. Visuals must support the oral presentation. Using the medium of area maps, videos, pictures, news reports, podcasts, etc., viewers of the presentation must see evidence of the destination and its related culture.

Section I: Regional and Country Research

Country-Turkey (focus on European Turkey, Not Asia)
