Actually I am a little late into the semester to use the phrase 'new semester,' but it works for this purpose! Welcome to Pods of Thought #11. Amazing, isn't it? This is actually the 12th blog that has been created for either ENGL 222 or ENGL 223 through the years. The one that is not numbered was created through the Blog tab on Blackboard and it just didn't work very well for us. We tried it. We didn't like it. We returned to this format--and it works!
I am always excited about the blogs, especially to see the creativity of the students. What will they come up with as a focus for their blogs? Will it be music (the songs of the time period)? Tweets from one character to another? A focus on theatre (can we dramatize the short story?)? What selections will they choose for their focus? What catches their eyes?
Whatever they choose, I know that it will be related to American lit, to the time periods we are studying, and that they will be pulling all of their creative juices to the forefront to have the best blogs ever seen for this project!
Happy Blogging to everyone! It will be so much fun to read and respond to everyone's creations!
