Week 12 (4/8 - 4/12)

Choose ONE of the following two reading responses ...

Wed. 4/10 (Flynn): BEFORE you read the Flynn articles, write a short narrative (300 or more words) about a learning experience you underwent outside the classroom. In other words, tell me a story about a time when you learned something (anything) and you weren’t at school. The more harrowing the tale, the better. If you can’t think of something suitable or you just don’t want to share your own experience, then make up such a story, but please clearly label it as fiction for me. Post at least 12 hours before class time.

Fri. 4/12 (Heilker & Yergeau): Summary + Connections + What is the dominant perception of autism that the authors are arguing against? How do these authors want us to think about autism instead? + Opinions

Wed. 4/3 (Delpit): Summary + Connections + This is one of the first articles that directly challenges another work that we have read. Look at how Delpit enters a conversation with Gee. Does she succeed in persuading you to her counter-points against Gee? How might you imitate her strategy in your own work? + Opinions

Fri. 4/5 (Villanueva + hooks): One summary for each reading + Connections (please incorporate previous readings) + Opinions
