This week

As I said in class last week, we are finished with formal reading assignments for this class and will spend our time in the rest of our meetings with studio time working on the final projects. Your Vietnamerica essays are due on Thursday, so you should have a solid draft by the time we have class tomorrow afternoon. If questions arise while you work on the essay, we can discuss those tomrrow.

Your reading assignment for tomorrow is just to make certain that you have very carefully read and thought about the essay that you will be working on for the group projects. You should each make your own reverse outline for the article that your group will be turning into a comic. If you identify the places where the article makes major shifts, then you can map out what kind of shifts occur–what does it shift from and to what? Come to class with an understanding of what you see as the major pieces of the article–be able to identify and describe the article’s major claims, subordinate claims, and what evidence is used to support claims.
