For the rest of this year (and leading into next year) rather than ask you to respond to a question of my creation or to write about a particularly narrow section of the texts we read, I'd like you to write approximately one page a week on a topic of your choice.
I'm trying to shift my own position in the class away from that of leader/writer/teacher to that of reader/writer/teacher. Each week I will post my own blog in response to the readings. My blog entries will be based on my own thoughts, ideas, questions, and critiques about the readings, and you are welcome to continue the conversation I begin or to go off in your own direction.
If you have difficulty getting started, you might read some of what others have written to see what has interested them about a particular text. Another blogger might ask a question, raise an issue, or make a comment that inspires you to write. You might consider commenting on that person's writing to let them (and us) know that they inspired you to write. That way, we can keep track of the conversations we're having about our readings.
(See above for this week's post.)
