"My understanding of literature has grown substantially over the course of the semester. Receiving feedback from my peers and instructor has given me the opportunity to see my work from different perspectives and to see any grammatical errors that I have made. Another helpful aspect of this course has been the various mediums that we have used; creating blog postings, a script, and a podcast have helped me to step out of my comfort zone and better receive feedback by encouraging me to put my ideas out in the open while still maintaining an open mind about other’s opinions. Overall, this course has been highly interactive and a great learning experience for me, and I believe that I have benefited most from the social environment."

"I didn’t expect  . . . to go to the museum. It was such a great experience! I loved looking at all the paintings and taking pictures of them and just reading the descriptions. One of my favorites was the Starry Night."

0 Comments

 
 Working in  small groups, create a Snapchat video posting interpreting at least one of the Claude McKay poems that we read (“If We Must Die,” “America,” “Subway Wind,” “On Broadway,” or “The Tropics in New York.” ). The posting will include text, such as lines from the poem or responses to it.

At least one member of the group should create a separate Snapchat account for this course and share the results with the instructor.  We will view your postings at the end of class.

Using Google Tour Builder, construct a guide to the second half of Part I of Jean Rhys's Good Morning, Midnight.  Consider how best to demonstrate the relationship between geography and the moment in the novel. Include commentary and interpretations.

Designate one member of your group as the tour guide, one as the internet researcher, and one as the Rhys scholar. Work together to address how best to combine these resources visually. Save your project, but do not make it available to the public. You can share it with each other and the instructor.

In Class Exercise:
Working in small groups, discuss how your little magazine from the Modernist Journals Project makes visual arguments and the significance of the arguments it makes. What is the relationship between the design of the magazine and its content? What does the magazine reflect about modernist literature and art?

Use the Questions for Rhetorical Analysis in Issue One of Understanding Rhetoric as a guide for considering your magazine. After 15-20 minutes you will introduce the class to the arguments that your magazine makes.

Group 1: BLAST
Group 2: The Smart Set
Group 3: The Little Review
Group 4: Others
Group 5: The Egoist
Group 6: Rhythm
