Your Final Project must be original work written for this class.This means that you must be the author and you must not have turned in your project, or another version of it, for a grade in this or another class. Turning in a project written by someone else is plagiarism and will not be tolerated, in accordance with the Kaplan University plagiarism policies described in the course Syllabus.
In addition, the items included in this time capsule must be selections for which you have not previously received a grade in this course. For example, if you reviewed a song by the Dave Matthews Band for the music discussion in Unit 7, you should not use that same song as your song example for the Final Project.
