The Last One




My primary goal in incorporating the blog into the course this year was to foster some discussion outside of the classroom and to afford you the opportunity to present and discuss ideas not necessarily covered in class. How successful do you believe the blogs were? Are there any changes (form or content) you think I should make for next year?

A Hall of a Time ...


Please provide a reaction to Mr. Hall's classroom visit. What did you think of the analytical methodology (SQFR) presented over the past couple of days? Were there any other thoughts on the short story that you did not get a chance to make during class?

Southern Short Stories


Do you have any final thoughts on the mini-unit of short stories by Southern writers? Any particular favorite? Any interesting overlap or similarities (characterization, theme, style, etc.)between or among the stories?
