Lisa’s Introduction

Hi, I’m Lisa.  I’m the professor.  This is my first semester at City Tech, but I’ve been working in CUNY schools since 2001.  I hold a PhD in English from CUNY’s Graduate Center, I’ve taught English at Brooklyn College, gender studies at Hunter College, and work in the instructional technology program at Macaulay Honors College.  I really enjoyed our first two classes and am excited about this semester.  I love not just teaching, but learning new things alongside my students.  Stop by and visit me after class on Wednesdays (10:15-11:15) in NAM 529 sometime.

Reading Journals

This is the place to keep your reading journals.

Over the course of the semester, you should post at least five responses to the assigned readings, and respond to classmates as often as you can.  These responses do not need to be formal, but they should use complete sentences and appropriately structured paragraphs.  You can include your reactions, questions, concerns, frustrations, and joys here.  This is a place for you to work through your questions about our material–not a place where you are expected to have all the answers.
