Welcome to Week 5 of our course. This week we are starting a segment on poetry. This week you will be introduced to the iconic form of the sonnet. Be sure to participate in the Week 5 Discussion Board. There is no quiz this week. Notes: Deadline for all drafts (late first drafts and revisions) for Essay 1 is Sunday, October 6th. The college is closed from Wednesday, October 2 through Friday, October 4. There is no Zoom meeting for Section 1104 on Wednesday.
Welcome to Week 3 of our OpenLab course. This week will be reading “The Lesson” by Toni Cade Bambara, a story that is both funny and deeply serious. The story is written in African American Vernacular English (AAVE) rather than standard English. This will probably present no problems for most students; however, those for whom English is a second language may find the grammar and language a bit challenging. I think you’ll all agree that the use of AAVE adds realism, authenticity, and humor to the narration. Please complete Quiz 4 by Sunday, September 22nd. Please be sure to participate in the Week 3 discussion board. Note: Please be careful when posting on the discussion board. Do not change anything in the “Category Sticky” box on the right side of the screen. Leave that to read “Select Category.” If you check that box, my instructions do not appear first. Under that box is the one where you will add a check next to the current week. Also, please title your post: First Name Last Name Week 3 Discussion. Thank you!
