We will continue with presentations on Thursday, May 20, 2010. If students did not present their research essays: Social Entrepreneur essays, this is the final opportunity to do so.

Tuesday-Wednesday, students can catch up on posts, work on the portfolio essays and revise essays.

Don't forget the portfolio workshops.

Final Days, Portfolio Narrative Assignment
The portfolio narratives (These are essays)

1. The narrative will look at the 18 weeks, the themes we looked at this semester, women and women's empowerment. Talk about what you've learned and discovered this semester about writing and yourself, college and life, which have transformed or changed you.

What have you learned about yourself this semester? What have you learned about the discipline you are studying here: reading and writing that you plan to carry forth into your lifelong pursuit of learning.

Please also comment on the texts and whether or not they were helpful in this process. You can also talk about the instruction, culture of the class and the teacher.

2. Besides the two essays you use as evidence to discuss your revision process, I also want you to include the Half the Sky essay, the book report essay and social entrepreneur essay. We have already started the narrative on revision. Each essay needs to be 250 minimally words. Check previous posts.

You have a copy of the assigned essays this semester. The check-list is the same with grades posted next to the assignment. We will look at this the last day of class. Bring all your work to class.
