Wednesday September 2nd

One owl with three cats (reference to Outsider Assignment)

Hello All,

Tomorrow we will have an optional meeting on Zoom (link in Blackboard Announcement) to discuss some of the readings (and a video) you received this week in the Topics Section, and how they relate to your Outsider Narrative:

The Sources of Narrative Medicine by Rita Charon

Close Reading and Creative Writing by Charon et al.

The Danger of a Single Story by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

We will also discuss the elements of rhetoric and–if there is demand–we will begin building your Online Portfolios.

If everyone who attends agrees, tomorrow’s session will be recorded and posted later in the day.

Please remember to respond to at least one of your peer’s Narrative drafts on the relevant discussion board between September 2nd and September 9th. I will be sending my comments to each of you.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

See you in class,

Professor Brener
