this is the poem :
Although she feeds me bread of bitterness, And sinks into my throat her tiger’s tooth, Stealing my breath of life, I will confess
I love this cultured hell that tests my youth. Her vigor flows like tides into my blood, Giving me strength erect against her hate, Her bigness sweeps my being like a flood. Yet, as a rebel fronts a king in state,
I stand within her walls with not a shred Of terror, malice,1 not a word of jeer.2 Darkly I gaze into the days ahead,
And see her might and granite wonders there, Beneath the touch of Time’s unerring hand, Like priceless treasures sinking in the sand.

Your final assignment of the course is to design an online experiment for kids.

You can start with any experiment you like as inspiration and adapt it for online, or start from scratch. You can use an experimental paper we’ve discussed in class, or find a totally different one to use as the basis. Or you can design a totally novel experiment to ask a new empirical question.

Describe or draw out the stimuli, explain the methods, explain what you’d measure, and how you’d interpret the resulting data. Use whatever format you like. Get creative. If you’d like to convey your ideas in a slides format, like we saw in class, feel free. Just make sure you include information on what you’re testing, what you’ll measure, how you’ll interpret it, etc somewhere in the document.

Avoid experimental confounds and discuss all possible outcomes and what each would mean.

Write a research paper on a topic of your choice from ancient Greece or Rome (if you want to pick something adjacent like Egypt, come to me with the topic first). As a research paper, it should cite sources used and should use a diverse number and type of scholarly sources sources (avoid places like Wikipedia).

Remember, your paper should present a point of view, make an argument. It should not just be a descriptive essay. As such, be careful when choosing a topic to make it specific enough to where you can cover it in this small research paper. Remember to include an introduction with a clear thesis statement and a concluding paragraph.
