As you narrow your possible topis for the last(!) mini-project, this method (adapted from Dr. Sample) might help you:<\/p>\n

First, consider how the course has evolved so far.\u00a0 Begin by reading all of the posts you have written, and the posts that they referenced. As you reread them, take notes.\u00a0 Read these as if they were assigned texts, and try to identify themes that emerge from week-to-week. These might overlap with some of the theoretical interventions we’ve been putting on the board, and might also introduce new themes.\u00a0 Both outcomes are completely acceptable.\u00a0 Some questions to consider might include: What has the class tended to write about in your posts? Are there broad themes or specific concerns that reoccur? Has the nature of the class\u2019s posts changed over the course of the semester? What changes do you notice, and how might you account for those changes? How do these changes indicate a dominant theme? What surprised you as you reread your work? What ideas or threads in your posts do you see as worth revisiting? What else do you notice? <\/em><\/p>\n

Once you’ve taken these notes (for yourself – no need to post them) pick a few of the themes that have emerged and put them in a bullet-pointed list on the private course blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
