Fun Day Monday
The "Bad Day" texts are there for you to read and comment. Why not send a recording from your computer about your worst day?
At the time of writing (6:56) I have received 11 out of thirty-one Ted Talk summaries! By the end of today I want them all in.
I will start off today's lesson by returning some of the work you have given to me. The first lesson you worked on paper but from now onwards I would like you to send your assignments digitally.
The absolute best way is to send them as google documents so that the process of writing can be enhanced.
To make life a bit easier I have included a document on the right-hand side of the blog to do with corrections.
We can look at it briefly and then get on with the task in hand for today.
Today we will be beginning the first of three literary works which are part of the course.
We start with a "classic".
The definition of what constitutes a "classic" has always been open to interpretation and discussion. I want you to add your fuel to this discussion.
Here is the document I would like you to download as a basis for your assignment.
If you cannot find anything of interest on our shelves then here is a list of possible authors.
Finally to give some perspective of what was going on in the UK during the nineteenth century (1800's) I have included a time-line of important events.
Your homework for this week is to start reading your "classic". The deadline for completion is week 47 when you will give your classic talk.
E-mail me by Friday the title of your work and the name of the author.
