For this week’s Weekly Writing assignment, I would like you to choose a different person from your team than the person who emailed me last week. This new team member should write an email to me (jellis at citytech.cuny.edu) and cc all the other team members. Use the subject, “ENG2575, Week 13 Update.” In the body of your email, write a professional message of about 250 words describing what your team has done over the past week to work on the project. This email should be written collaboratively through conversation (phone, Zoom, Google Hangouts) or text communication (text message, social media, etc.). It isn’t up one person to write this email. All team members are expected to say and contribute something to the email about what your team has been doing. For example: Did you have a meeting? Who is working on what? What research leads were found? What do you plan to do next? Don’t forget to include a salutation to open and a closing at the end. This is due by Wednesday, Nov. 25.
Opportunity, Extra Credit for Attending and Writing About City Tech Events
This Thursday, Nov. 19, there are three big events hosted by City Tech that I wanted to let you all know about.
Also, you may earn extra credit that can take the place of a missed weekly writing assignment or be applied to a major project grade. To earn the extra credit, write an email to me that includes a 250-word or more summary of who you heard speak and what you learned from them. The events take place at different times of the day, so you can catch parts of each. You don’t have to stay for the whole event, but please invest enough time to get something out of the events that you do attend.
Even without the extra credit, I would like to encourage you all to take part in events–even virtual ones–at City Tech. I can speak from my own experience about how transformative these experiences can be.
Event 1: The Fifth Annual City Tech Science Fiction Symposium
This is the big event that I help organize each year. We have Science Fiction writers, scholars, and students talking on the theme of “Race and Science Fiction.”
