Assess students' ability to create a 1,200–1,500-word original short story that purposefully integrates code-switching, register variation, and innovative morphological processes (e.g., blending, affixation, reduplication) to portray bilingual/multilingual identity, and to produce a 750–1,000-word analytic commentary that links each salient linguistic choice to relevant sociolinguistic, pragmatic, and discourse-analytic theories (e.g., code-switching frameworks, register/style theory, politeness/stance, conversation/discourse analysis). Evaluation focuses on creative linguistic implementation, theoretical grounding and citation, explicit linkage between textual examples and theory, coherence of identity portrayal, and clarity of scholarly argumentation. Include examples from the story in the commentary and a brief bibliography of sources.
