Each student is required to find, describe, and evaluate FIVE (5) different websites which somehow illustrate the use of classical mythology in the modern world. Since no two students can evaluate the same websites, it is in everyone's best interest to do this assignment as early in the semester as possible. As soon as you have identified a site you want to evaluate, you should reserve it by sending an e-mail message to the instructor with the URL. The information on each website should include a title, author, and URL along with a 300-word description/evaluation which contains the following: 1.) a description of the overall website; 2.) a explanation of the specific mythological features of the site; 3.) some observation about the way(s) that the myth is used and changed in this modern context; 4.) reference to any significant mythological images on the site; 5.) reference to any significant links accessible from this page; 6.) your overall evaluation of the website and the reasons why you evaluated it in this manner
Here is the list of websites already requested and approved. They are listed alphabetically by URL. The number indicates how many sites the student has requested. Evaluations of each website will be posted here as they are received.
