Agenda for Wednesday, Nov 3

 

1–Freewrite

2–Discuss Globalization

 

–Homework for Monday, Nov 8: 

Read “Interpreter of Maladies” by Jhumpa Lahiri, and then prepare a short paragraph about the story to tell the class (there is nothing to submit, this will be a conversation). I will call on each student. 

 

In order to have a vibrant discussion, I will count participation as double on Monday.

 

Use the following questions to help prepare your paragraph (You do not have to answer all of these questions. This is a guide):

–Who are the main characters and how can they be described?

–Describe 3-5 main plot points.

–Describe the setting.

–What is the narration style?

–What symbols or metaphors does the story contain?

–What types of globalization are at work? EG, DG, Object-EG, Organization-EG, and what about the four qualities of Globalization that Steger describes?
