[SOLVED] Todays Pandemic, COVID19
We are to submit a 2000 word report on the movie Contagion (2011). We’re encouraged to be creative in our approach. The report may take any form/approach we wish – I have decided to build a website. I am very tech savvy with websites. The aim of the report is to be accessible to the general public while relying on scientific research and reflection. The goal of the report/website is to communicate to the public how we should proceed with addressing COVID-19 by connecting with the general public via a discussion of a popular film (Contagion). The report/essay must answer the following questions. 1. Provide a summary of the film you reviews. 2. Identify the similarities and differences of the pandemic in the film when compared to the COVID-19 pandemic. 3. Identify one thing the film accurately portrayed and one thing the film inaccurately portrayed about how the public responds to the pandemic in the film relative to how the public has responded to COVID19 4. Critically reflect on how the film portrayed the outcome/resolution (e.g., how was the situation dealt with), and whether or not the film’s representation can be justified scientifically. We do not expect you to dive deep into the science, but instead to do some basic research and to rely on the knowledge you already know about COVID-19. Using the film as a “launching point”, communicate two strategies you think that can be adopted to address COVID19 over the next months that are unique or build upon existing strategies. I just want a 2000 word report that answers the 4 questions (perhaps 500 words for each answer). I would use the report in a creative approach later by creating it into a website. Using the ideas and format from the report.
