UPDATE: 02.19.08

READING: For Thursday's class, please read Atwan08, which can be found on Blackboard.

WRITING: (1) Your first writing assignment for the week will be, as mentioned in class, to select 5 cassette tapes that you would like to have if you were either a) stranded on a deserted island, or b) stuck at the bottom of a dried up well & all you had was an old-school ghetto-blaster (aka boom-box). In addition to selecting these 5 tapes, you will need to hyperlink to each band's website & a site where you can purchase each album. Afterwards, you are to write 300 words on why you chose these particular selections. Finally, you will want to include an image of either a) a deserted island, or b) an empty well, depending on which scenario you have chosen. DUE: Wednesday, February 20th @ midnight.

(2) For your second writing assignment of the week, I will send each of you a scanned image of one randomly selected diagrams from class (Click on image for bigness). You will write a 300 word response to your diagram, incorporate the image of your diagram into your post, as well as 2 hyperlinks. DUE: Sunday, February, 24th @ midnight.

(3) Finally, you will want to begin working on the rough draft to your first writing project (Observe & Reflect). Of course, before you can begin writing, you must conduct 2 observations. If you haven't already begun doing this, I would start ASAP. Guidelines for the project will be posted tomorrow, but you can safely assume that they will be ALMOST identical to last semester's guidelines for the first writing project. ROUGH DRAFT DUE: Tuesday, February 26th.
