Overview
The final assignment is your opportunity to formally gather and present the knowledge you’ve
learned about the issues you’ve been studying for the semester in your recitation sections, and,
where related, in lecture. The final deliverable is a 15-20 page paper defining the problem the
recitation project tries to solve, benchmarking existing conditions, designing measures of
progress, and documenting the efforts and outcomes of the project. Use the material you’ve been
gathering and studying this semester: the readings, materials from your work, and anecdotes.
Also, consult the syllabus for additional readings and materials; there is a great deal of resources
listed there that might help you to think through this final assignment.
Final papers for SIA will be due 5 pm, Wednesday December 15th to the Architecture
office, Meyerson 210.
You may use excerpts of your building profiles or marketing materials (not simple
copy/paste) incorporated in any of the three parts of the paper. This should not be more
than 50% of your paper combined, and the excerpts may include relevant images. Use your
discretion.
