The Politics of ‘Autonomous Vehicles’: A Collaborative Research Project Responding to a CFP

Abstract

This sequence of assignments was centered on a major writing task, in which students were asked to write a collective research paper in groups in response to a real-world call for papers on the topic of “The Politics of ‘Autonomous Vehicles’”. Assigned during the last quarter of the semester, the sequence aimed at helping students practice writing about sophisticated, collaborative research work effectively, as well as apply and sharpen the writing skills and theoretical perspectives previously learned in the course.
