Today the defense and prosecution teams in the early class (8-9 a.m.) were missing key partners so instead of canceling the trial and rescheduling Judge Sabir decided that the litigators would all develop five (5) questions for Dr. Victor Frankenstein. Each student then shared the questions and afterwards one student (Tomas) volunteered to answer a question he recalled. This led to follow-up questions. Most questions were quite thoughtful and engaging.
Both classes post the questions here. Don't forget to include your name and e-mail address. We will continue the query Monday, April 23-24 in class and on-line. See below the question for Monday's free-write.
The next class (9-10) had sufficient team members present to begin. We started with the same free write; however, when most team members we present we began. (We did not share the questions.)
After the prosecution put the witnesses in the order they would be called, Judge Sabir put numbers in a hat to correspond to this order and team members on both sides at random were asked to pull numbers from the hat and answer questions. (Be prepared.)
The first witness called was Dr. Victor Frankenstein. The witness was ill-prepared so another team member was asked to assist (her). He was better prepared but having forgotten key points in the text, his answers were not substantive enough to win the argument presented by the prosecution that Victor Frankenstein was guilty as charged.
This went on and on for half an hour. The prosecution team's led litigator, Jeff asked pointed questions of the witness with follow-up questions from team members: Michael and Tatillius.
The response from students showed that though team members had developed questions they hadn't answered their own questions with citations from the text, nor had the defense anticipated the opposing side's position. This was a serious oversight. In preparation for a debate or an exchange of ideas, one should always anticipate the opposition and prepare for it, this is more important that one's own case.
The Monday, April 23rd free-write will look at Frankenstein's monster and the questions for him will be these:
1.If you had your life to begin over again, would you change any of your actions if nothing changed regarding Dr. Frankenstein's reception of you?
2.Did you consider Dr. Frankenstein's legitimate objections over your request for a mate, the number one issue --she might not like you, the second she might not agree to quit civilized society for the wilds, third, what if you have offspring? How could he believe you would keep your word when you had no control over yourself let alone another yet to be created or manufactured?
3.Do you feel society owes anything to you? If so, what is this?
Other homework: Bring in a draft of your Social Entrepreneur Essay. Don't forget to read the article on Muhammad Yunus. Second draft is due Wednesday. Third draft is due Monday, April 30. (I am thinking about giving you an extension and making the final draft due, Thursday, May 3.)
Consider is done.
The completed final draft should have been e-mailed to me before the class begins (8 or 9 a.m.) on Thursday, May 3. Late papers will not be read. I want to see the drafts, so don't forget to bring them in. We will have have a cyber free-write warm-up from Hamlet, so bring in your suggestions.
Bring the other drafts to class so we can workshop them.) Between the 2-3 draft, please go by the Writing Center and get a teacher or graduate student tutor to review your essay. Have the person sign and date the essay and write a comments: Show them the assignment and then prepare 3-5 questions in advance for him or her to answer, such as,
1.Is my thesis strong and well-developed?
2 Do I clearly state the problem?
3.Are you clear on what spurred my subject to start the project, who the target population is and what the measurable or tangible results were?
4.Is my evidence sufficient and clear?
5.Are there any areas of my essay where the grammatical error interfere with the meaning?
Bring in Hamlet for Tuesday/Wednesday. Bring Elements of Style to class, along with Hacker and a dictionary. Remember, we meet in L-235 on Thursdays, 4/26 classes are cancelled in the Peralta College District.

1.) Do You think you are responsible for your creatures actions? Why or WHy not.
2.)Do you think that creating your creature was a mistake? If so, do you think that you could have fixed the problem?
3.) Do you think that you could have stoped the murdeers of Elizabeth and Clerval if you would have gone to the authorities and told them that your creature had murdered Justine and William?
4.) Did it ever occure to you that your creature would be capable of murder?
5.) Did it ever occure to you that your creature would act so much like a human: I.E. feel sadness, love, loneliness, and anger?
