Data Collection & Coding:
1. Collect the cartoons depicting issues related to undocumented workers in the U.S. from diverse news sources. In other words, do not use the same newspaper or cartoonist for all of your cartoons, or limit to ones from only “liberal” or “conservative” news sources. Cartoons should represent diverse opinions.
2. Collect a minimum of 30 cartoons published in 2007-2009. Divide the work of collecting the cartoons among team members. Include both domestic and international cartoons.
3. Teams meet during class time to code and analyze the cartoons.
4. Cartoons and coding sheets are organized into a folder or notebook to submit with the team essay or multimedia project. Include full citation information for the cartoons (e.g., date, news source, cartoonists). Be sure to number each cartoon and staple coding sheet to each. Notebooks are required for ALL teams.
5. Include a list of team members and their responsibilities for the assignment in the notebook.
