Last Week of Class: Revising and Proofreading plus info on Blogging Presentations
On Monday, December 1 please bring in a newer version of your draft to work on in terms of revision. We will go over transitional words and paragraphing to help you get your final paper in shape. Also remember to check my office hours for this week in the post below.
On the wednesday and friday of the last week of class, I'd like each blog group to present their blog to the class. I will assign groups on the monday after thanksgiving. This presentation should involve a fifteen minute overview of what you have done on your blog, with each participant first discussing their participation and favorite blog responses from their fellow group members. Then as a group, I'd like you to choose another blog to analyze, showing its high and low points in terms of what the assignment asked the class to do, and lastly, discuss what kinds (if any) of literacies were involved in blogging. what were the limitations to this medium, what are the advantages, and lastly how does it compare as a form of communication with webx in terms of providing a space for classroom discussion outside of the classroom.
