 (2013) is a documentary film about Tim Jenison’s efforts to duplicate the painting techniques of the seventeenth-century Dutch master Johannes Vermeer. While Art Historians traditionally accept that Vermeer used an optic device called a ; Jenison proposes the artist was further aided by the use of mirrors. He locates this proposal in Vermeer’s unique style incorporating bright colors, expensive pigments and a meticulous study of the ever-changing effects of light.. Responses may be based in personal opinion, but should address some combination of the following questions. What makes someone an “artist”? Do you feel Tim Jenison fits this definition? Do we value art more or less if the maker uses a technological device? Do you feel that the use of optic devices is cheating? What did Tim Jenison’s experiment demonstrate? Based upon your own experience of trying to draw in line versus color, do you respect Tim’s experiment more or less?

  In Week One of the course, you developed a research question and began researching various sources that relate to that question. You will use the library sources and websites you have collected this week to create your Final Paper for the course, which is an annotated bibliography.An annotated bibliography can serve various purposes. Sometimes annotated bibliographies are used as a broad survey of a research topic. They can also be used to demonstrate the research that you have done on a specific topic. A third use of an annotated bibliography is to explore a specific subtopic in more detail. Annotated bibliographies should only include strong sources that pass the CRAAP test. Watch the video.In order to complete this assignment, focus on the research question you developed in Week One. Remember that you can use your annotated bibliography to broadly explore your research question. The point of exploring the topic is to hone your research question and learn more about the topic in general. The “Creating the Annotated Bibliography” section of these instructions explains how you will structure your assignment.First, explain your research topic and why you chose this topic. This can be done in three to four sentences. You will be gathering various types of sources (i.e., two websites, three scholarly articles, and one scholarly book) that relate directly to the topic that you chose.After explaining your topic and why you chose it, you will create an annotation for each source (i.e., two websites, three scholarly articles, and one scholarly book). Your paper will include a total of six sources. Each annotation must have the following content:Each annotation should be between 100 and 150 words. After you complete the annotation, the second thing that you will do is use the handout, , to evaluate the source. Remember that CRAAP stands for , , , , and . You will write another 100- to 150-word paragraph immediately following the annotation in which you evaluate the source and explain the strengths of the source. At the end of the paragraph, you will explain why you would feel confident using the source in a larger research paper.You are required to use the to help format your work. Be sure to refer back to the instructions for the assignment to ensure all elements are addressed as required. View the for additional guidance as you work to complete this assignment.The annotated bibliography must include
