| Response Papers
The
response paper is a short (1-2 page) response to the assigned
readings.Response papers should summarize the argument of the essay in the
main paragraph and then critically enagaged/evaluated some aspect of the
argument. These may be as creative as you have energy for... that is,
feel free to play loose with the term "critical." Response papers are to
be posted on the class listserve by noon the day of class.
Presentations
You will be responsible for selecting a text
(article or part of a book) to present. Presentations will include a
summary of the argument and your own critique of the work. In addition,
you will lead discussion on this text.
Essays
You have a choice here. Your writing requirements can be fulfilled by
either two ten page papers, one at mid-term, one during finals week, or by
an article length (17 - 20 pages) essay at the end of the course.
Essays will be critical arguments that present your own theorizing in
relation to the works we have discussed.
OR, you can do a hypertextual, web-based argument that is the equivalent
of the pages required in the hard-copy papers.
