As I stated in my last post, I will be creating a short journal where I will detail the concepts that have been in the readings and discussions. More specifically, I have so far written a couple entries about the greengrocer concept in relation to ideology and the other ideas it has tangled with. Also, I have discussed the idea of dissenting and conforming in relation to the Miracle Game. As for the format of the journal entries. I am treating them as any normal diary or journal entry: date, personal story, etc... Hopefully, I will be able to add a couple entries about future readings after we finish the Miracle Game. This is my idea at least for the first half of the semester. I may or may not continue this into the next half. It depends on if I am satisfied with how the journals turn out. Each week I have been and will be entering a new journal entry.
As for the evaluation, I want my work to be judged based on: effort, originalism in terms of my ideas, and the connections made with the readings.
I think this will work fine, at least for the first half of the semester. Perhaps after midterm we can discuss how to refine and expand the scope of your writing. In what form will you be writing, and how will I get access? If you're writing in a notebook, then probably you'll have to provide copies or scans, so that I don't slow you down by taking your "medium" away. I think I understanding the evaluation scheme and that I can follow it.
ReplyDeleteI can provide copies, Or I was also thinking of doing a written version and a typed version.
