Last week we highlighted OpenLab courses from this term. This week we thought we’d highlight a few project that are particularly interesting for the term. Enjoy!

WORDS HAVE LIVES: RESOURCES FOR STUDENTS IN DEVELOPMENTAL WRITING
This site is a composition and grammar resource for students who want to write stronger papers. While topics here are produced in direct response to class discussions and interactions with students regarding specific writing concerns, they also are relevant to all students wishing to understand how to fix their own writing and gain a sense of how their writing questions are shared with others going through the same learning process.

OUR PLACES: HOW WE COMMEMORATE
This project features the photographs and writing of students in LAW 2301 Estates, Trusts and Wills, showing the varied ways that the inhabitants of New York City commemorate decedents. What’s particularly amazing about this site is the range–from large monuments we’ve all seen to tributes to Jam Master Jay to spontaneous street corner memorials, from all over the city. Lovely lovely site.
That’s all for this week. As always, contact us with any questions!
