Brilliant! Or, Today’s Sound-Scripts & Looking to Next Week
Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who presented their sound-scripts today. Each one of them was smart, sophisticated, and engaging. What’s more, I want to thank Casey, Aitza, and Ashley for their patience and willingness to present next Thursday. Much obliged.
Classes like today make me so stoked to be an instructor. You no doubt demonstrated that students should contribute a great deal to course content at the University. Rather than simply consuming and repeating information, you produced knowledge. To boot, I learned quite a bit from each of you today and during the entire sound-script process. After today, I’m all the more excited to read your major papers.
Now, if you don’t mind, let’s talk future.
Tuesday the 19th:
- Major Paper 1 is due (if you need more time, then e-mail me)
- Don’t forget to use the mock paper and MLA in the service of your argument
- Before class (e.g., over the weekend), feel free to e-mail me with your questions
- In class, we’ll chat in depth about sequence two, and I’ll distribute the three prompts for that sequence
Thursday the 21st:
- Podcast 2 is due
- We’ll complete Blog #5 in class and be the audience for Aitza, Ashley, and Casey’s sound-scripts (thanks again for your patience here!)
- In class, we’ll also workshop your sequence two ideas, which will stress your service-learning, how to represent your community sites and partners, and how to write about public work
- At 1:30, we’ll take a trip down to the Experience Music Project (get your voucher, if you have not already)
That’s enough of time and space for now. Enjoy your weekend, people.
Write sound, think ahead, and be well.
Best,
Jentery
