You will craft a 5 page paper using 1-2 threshold concepts from your discipline to examine one of the themes covered in Thi Bui’s The Best We Could Do.

Detailed Instructions

The Best We Could Do: An Illustrated Memoir

Novel by Thi Bui, covered all sorts of topics:

  • Immigration
  • Identity
  • Mixed Identity
  • Displacement
  • Sense of belonging
  • The refugee experience
  • Nationalism
  • The value of education
  • Inter generational dynamics
  • Parenthood
  • Family

Use one or two (keep it focused) threshold concepts to describe how, say, a communication scholar might view Bui’s experience. How would economists examine, say, immigration (one of the themes of the book)? Imagine how you would view the issues, problems, topics from the book using the tools from your discipline. Start with this, what questions would you ask as an anthropologist, chemist, or historian? Do you need examples? We will talk about examples in lecture and in sections.

Some more Specifics.

  • Use APA format for citations, title page, and references.
  • Remember your Bloom (Bloom, 1956) as you write. DON’T just quote from the sources — put them to work. Here’s a helpful reminder of Bloom and how to put it to use.https://jerz.setonhill.edu/writing/academic1/writing-that-demonstrates-thinking-ability/
  • Your paper should have an introduction. Prepare the reader for the Threshold Concept or concepts you plan to apply and how you’ll address a topic from Bui’s novel.
