Writing for the Future: For 2/3

Reminders for 2/3:

1) Your paper about writing a press release is due by class time on 2/3. So is the article that it is based on.

2) Be sure to put the Honor Code (or AHC) on your paper and to sign it.

3)  Read pages 69-79 in your text if you haven't already.

4) You might want to look ahead at pages 177-194.

5) In case you missed it in class, here's the final line of your syllabus:

 4/28. Final papers due. Share individual final papers. Goodbyes.

Writing for the Future: For 1/27

I hope you got a lot out of Randy Noles' talk last week. With so much focus about writing for the Internet these days, his contrarian approach may have shaken some of your assumptions. As we listen to other speakers, you'll be able to weigh what he had to say against their more mainstream views.

Meanwhile, I just want to remind everyone that this class is organized mostly as a workshop. If you're not speaking up much, you're not really experiencing this class. Please try to warm up to that idea.
