South Africa Travel Guidebook Project Proposal

 South Africa Travel Guidebook Project Proposal Purpose: Choose and evaluate primary sources and submit a project proposal that demonstrates the viability of a project topic.  Task: First, read over the assignment for the final Travel Guidebook project. Then, choose a topic for the project. Your topic should be thematic and regional, meaning that you’ll investigate change over time in a particular place through a particular lens. This theme can be broad for small sites, but it should be more specific if you choose a city or region. Examples include “Cape Town as a Jazz City”, “Rule and Resistance in the Drakensburg Mountains” or “Farm Stall Histories in the Western Cape.” By choosing a place, you are helping to focus the guidebook. You cannot use the entire country as the base for the guidebook. You will now write a proposal for this final project.
