As we will discuss in class today, this blog will serve as your home base for this course. Your syllabus, writing assignments and selected readings (outside of the essays in Occasions) can be accessed and downloaded here. I will occasionally post relevant content here, as well as information pertinent to our progress through the semester. You will also be given the opportunity to post content on the class blog for extra credit.
Your first assignment will be handed out in class today. By next Tuesday, you will be asked to:
- Create your own personal blog (using the instructions posted in "Course Documents" and email me your address. These addresses will be posted in a blogroll on the class blog.
- Post an introduction on your blog that includes your name, class standing, major, a brief biography and a piece of writing that has had an impact on your life.
- Read the syllabus (posted in "Course Documents"), "People as Pictures," (posted in "Selected Readings"), and "Look at Your Fish" (p. 100 in Occasions).
