I've gotten a little behind on the blog... I'll definitely go back and comment on the community dialogues, and on the remaining Kluger questions from Monday.
Homework: Read to pg. 170 of Still Alive... we're not going to read the rest, actually. Annie, Kiyomi, Marcee, and Sarah Devine should each come up with a kickoff question for us to discuss. Consult Hart's questions for inspiration if needed.
Research: With the exception of one person whom I instructed otherwise, you all need to email me 5 additional annotated bibliographies by next Sunday (5/24). Don't make this busywork; you all have gaps in your research that call for specific kinds of sources. Remember, the first draft of the research paper is due the night of Thursday 5/28.
The Project: I'm not doing any handholding here. Time is short if you're going to get this done by the end of the quarter, so you need to divide responsibilities and get started immediately. I expect a progress update by Wednesday. You also need to help me figure out how I am supposed to assess you in terms of grades.
Exam: Regardless of whether you are eating the chocolate or elephant flavor of the exam, now is a good time to select which questions you want to answer in-class vs. take-home, etc. (The three questions are what is doing, what is a community, and what causes social/historical change... or was the first question about the ends justifying the means? We'll have to settle this on Monday.) And select the three people/positions you are going to compare for each dialogue or essay (two per question from this quarter, and a third one from previous quarters.) The in-class component will be on Friday, and the take-home component will be due by Sunday night (5/24).
