Home Work Thursday 2/16

  1. Read John Taylor Gatto's article "Against School". 
  2. Review the updated reflected essay assignment. 
  3. Make a list of 10 questions you'd like to explore in terms of your writing. 
  4. Then either revise the free-write from today or start fresh on a rough draft of your reflective essay. Think about the way in which institutional learning has played into your development as a writer as well as your work in this course. In 300-500 words explore your history of writing in the larger context, your emerging writing process and discuss this courses roll in the continuation and disruption of the commodification of writing. Allow your questions to inform and guide you.
  5. Email me and your partners your rough draft by Sunday at 5 PM along with your questions. 
  6. Read through your partners' rough drafts and come up with 2-3 ideas for revision. Email me this list of ideas before class on Tuesday.
