An Undergraduate Conference

Group Media Presentation Guidelines
The media presentation is the preliminary work that you have done on the poem chosen for your final paper, but arranged and converted into a webpage so that we can upload it online for others to learn from what you have prepared. Each group will show your "poetic adventure" as part of the roundtable discussion on the adventure of poetry on the first day of the conference. We will all have a chance to share the kind of adventure we have experienced and comment on the discoveries and presentations of others. I have begun an example of such a poetry information page for John Donne's poem "The Flea." You are free to design your poem page and play with the idea of adventure through it any way you like, of course, as long as the following required elements are included. Have fun!
Each webpage should contain:
a link to this semester's 2202242 Introduction to the Study of English Poetry page
the date of the last update
The entire website/presentation should contain:
the full title and text of your group's poem
the poet's name
