Student voice and their "creations."
Academic discourse.
My acquired southern accent/discourse.
Audience.
Visual rhetoric.
Prep for Berger reading.
Journals.
Go over blackboard posts.
I feel like today was a bit rushed - partly because the computer threw a mild hissy-fit every time that I rolled the keyboard into the cabinet; Also, the students weren't talking much today, so I felt like I was talking A LOT. I got them to talk more when we discussed visual rhetoric, and had them apply their knowledge of rhetorical moves on a few "Got Milk" ads (the ads featured The Incredible Hulk, Superman, Wolverine, Rhiana, and Chris Brown). This is practice for their paper coming up! But there was definitely an air of "TGIF-ness" (that's a word)... Monday will be exciting with Berger :) They just need to recharge their batteries. I am looking forward to winter quarter schedule though - having nearly 2 hours together twice a week instead of the 1 hour three times a week will be helpful; that way, they'll be free to have larger discussions without my fearing that we aren't getting to the information we need to cover.
