Month: February 2024 (Page 1 of 9)

Today we began to look at the work of artist Martin Wilner, and I told you about a new prompt for writing while in transit. I am calling this “Inner/Outer Dialogues.” I’d like you try this on your own and bring at least one example in for next class on Thursday Feb 28. (During your five-minute writing time at the beginning of class you can work on it as well.) Later this week you will hand these in. Once we hear some of your examples on Thursday, we can discuss format in more detail.

I also created your WEEK 7 Assignment Folder. In it, you will find the “Inner/Outer Dialogues” assignment which will be due Feb 29.

P.S. As you know, your first Capstone Assignment is due end-of-day today. Those of you who already requested extensions in writing or who saw me during Office Hour received extensions.

btw: if you drive to school, or just don’t take public transport, you can complete an Inner/Outer assignment in a public space like a park, or a Starbucks, or the Cafeteria…

Hi Class, We haven’t seen each other in a while, and as you know, you have a major assignment due by end-of-day tomorrow. We will discuss its format in class, as well as go more in depth into the concept of Discourse Communities. So please come to class with any questions, clarifications, concerns.

We will be moving into a different style of short writing exercises. I will discuss that in class tomorrow as well.

…so we don’t have class together!
