4.24 Presentations

At the beginning of class we finished the discussion of how points will be allocated for work throughout the term.

500 points for notes from participation, presentations on theorists,  in-class "experiments",  contributions to class data base (including the oral history, pre-/post class data, replies to questionnaires, writing to prompts etc); presentations on your projects, and contributions/suggestions to classmates during the workshopping process.

500 points for the final project to be allocated among the 3 areas defined on the assignment sheet as follows:
Final essay: 100
Data + analysis:  300
Writing process: 100

Location of data/analysis for your project:
I asked that you use the invitation-only data site as a repository for your in-process analysis, data

Presenatations: Mary, Robyn, Heather, and Luis presented an overview of their projects.  I sent my notes to individual presenters, and in-class comments on identifying/re-stating focus, selecting a method for anlaysis, connecting to the research literature, and pointing out the importance to writing studies were thoughtful and well-stated.  Thanks for your good participation.
