12: CODA

Overview

Snow ManThis officially ends our course. But I hope you will keep the conversation going! The Blackboard site will stay open for at least two weeks after class ends. Use each other as a resource.

Activities

1. Discussion: Now that you’ve worked through all the lessons you have one final assignment. Go back to your home page and revisit your metaphor. Knowing what you know now, what metaphor would you use to describe your ideal teacher of writing? If the metaphor is the same, explain how it fits now, with additional information. If it has changed, explain how the new metaphor fits and why you changed it. This constitutes your final discussion, so be sure to elaborate. You might refer to insights you gained in the readings or in the field from your observations and interviews. Make your final posts by mid week under the "Lesson 12" discussion in Blackboard. I encourage you to check out everyone’s postings.
 

Activities To Do:
See detail instructions in the
Activities list below.
Blackboard 1. Blackboard: Discuss metaphor
Blackboard 2. Blackboard: Reflect Paper

2. Reflection paper:  Looking back over all you've learned, how do you see yourself as a teacher of writing?  What would you like your own writing program to include once you have a full time teaching position?  What will be some key elements?  Think of this final reflection as a statement of your approach, philosophy of teaching writing, in preparation for job interviews. Turn in your one-page reflection paper in Blackboard under the "Lesson 12 Reflection" assignment by the end of the week.

Again, this officially ends our course, but I hope you will keep the conversation going! The listserv and sites will stay open for at least two weeks after class ends. Use each other as a resource.
