Multigenre Research Excerpt. *Today's post is part of Jocelyn Clark's senior project.
Jocelyn is one of my students at Highland High School in Pocatello, Idaho and chose the multigenre research option. What follows is an abbreviate portion of her final project with the Prezi she created for our senior project presentation night. Jocelyn will be attending BYU-Idaho after graduation and plans to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints after her nineteenth birthday. The media that we are surrounded by daily has affected the way that society as a whole has portrayed women. As time has gone on, media has directed how every woman is suppose to look and dress in order to even be considered as beautiful. Many times she would end up in the hospital. No girl should have to go through what Cara went through. Even celebrities are starting to take a stand against how the media portrays women and making comments about the importance of having confidence in and respecting your body.

It refers to a "non-traditional" research paper where students research a topic in depth and report their findings in a "genre-blended" paper. To do this, they select a research topic that interests them, study it in detail, and try to see it from multiple perspectives. The outcome, that is the MG research paper, is a blend of multiple genres and perspectives. Below you will see my six-week plan and also some extracts from my students' MG papers. I hope you explore the idea of using multiple genres in your classes--it can be a challenging experience for the teacher but the rewards are many!

My juniors don’t know it (unless they read this blog, in which case, hi students!
Surprise!) , but they are going to begin a multigenre research project in a couple of weeks. I first learned about multigenre research papers from Buffy Hamilton—I had heard of multigenre research papers before I attended Buffy’s session at the annual GCTE conference, but I hadn’t learned about them. In that session, she recommended Tom Romano’s book Blending Genre, Altering Style, which is still the gold standard for multigenre research writing.
I walked out of the session very excited to try this kind of writing with my students, but I needed some time to figure out how to do it and what I wanted it to look like. Buffy exemplifies what is best about Web 2.0 in her willingness not only to share her presentations, but also her materials with teachers who might not have been fortunate enough to attend her presentation (and, of course, those who were).

Purpose: The purpose of any paper is to explore and learn about a subject and to extend our thinking. The multi-genre web accomplishes that purpose, but it also gives you the opportunity to express the idea/subject in a less linear way than a regular paper. Writing is thinking, and each time we write, we are teaching our brains to think. In addition, when we publish our writing on the web, we are sharing our ideas, our feelings, our thinking with others, which creates a web of human understanding. Questions: What is a genre? What is a multi-genre essay? What are some genres I might use? But I've never done anything like this before. Creating a central theme: We want to encourage our students to choose themes/subjects/ideas/concepts from across the curriculum. Also, a good topic will be one that has a human element: humanity in conflict with society, science, itself.

It is not an uninterrupted, expository monolog nor a seamless narrative nor a collection of poems. A multigenre paper is composed of many genres and subgenres, each piece self-contained, making a point of its own, yet connected by theme or topic and sometimes by language, images, and content.
