T/Fr For Tuesday...-NO TRADITIONAL CLASS ON FRIDAY

Hello all,

Today, Professor Haden led the class discussion about the ordinary world and the call to adventure. Many salient points of views were expressed by all the students. Aleena drew some great connections to the work, with Emma, Greg, Lucy, and Liz achieving many observations that reflected knowledge.

We spoke about the three stooges of rhetoric, and we shared the many examples of the rhetorical appeals in class. Excellent work on your choice of songs and images. I was super-stoked about the ice-berg discussion and the manipulation of the audience's desires and needs.

Next, we went over the project one revisions and then we began project two. We discussed the parameters of Project Two. The Overview is located on the blog under Project Two Overview for Sept. 30. We started to get the creativity flowing. Remember, at this point, you are not limiting your ideas; instead you are creating opportunities for inquiry and exploration.

I discussed my writing for my conference presentation this weekend, which is the reason why you are having a drafting day on Friday. I will bring back pictures of the "misfit" from O'Conner's house.

For Friday (outside class work)

Read-Kafka Book I
Watch "The Red Scare" link on our class blog (ecandp2008fall.blogspot.com

Write-A comment on one of your peer's Vogler postings (must be complete before Friday)
Revision Plan for Project One-List three elements you will revise and list three elements that you will edit. Remember, revision is related to paragraph development and relationship, and editing is related to sentence development and relationship. Post on blog (must be before Friday).

Do-Take quiz which is on engrade. Then post the answers on your blog. The quiz is about Kafka and "The Red Scare."

For Tuesday (traditional class returns)


Read: Vogler 107-125

Do: Complete annotation of Vogler and post on your blog.

Write: Complete 1-3 of Project Two I-Search component (located on engrade.com calendar Sept. 30).
Revise your project one drafts, and bring two copies to class on Tuesday (one with name on it and one without name on it)

Please feel free to email me during the week/weekend if you would like help with your revision. Don't forget the writing center.

Take care,

Kat
