X1: First Impressions of Love Actually

Best Practices (Best Practices D1)

  • In workshop groups: Your task is to highlight and consolidate the advice about teaching and learning writing that we came up with on Tuesday.  Begin by sorting the items listed in D1 into three meaningful groups. You do not have to include all the items, and you can merge similar ones if that seems useful. Come up with titles for each of your three new categories, and aim to list four or five items under each. (You can cut and paste from the document I’ve placed in your group folder.) Create a new document, titled Best Practices D2.docx, and post it to your Group folder.

Writing Geek

  • Use one space after a period. See Farhad Manjoo, “Space Invaders” (Slate 2011).

To Do

  1. Mon, 9/03, 10:00 am: View Love Actually. Write X1, and post it to your group folder on Google Drive.
  2. Tues, 9/04, class: Read the X1s posted by the other members of your group sometime before class. Come to class with copies of their work—either on your laptop, or printed out. I will expect you to be able to refer to specific moments in each other’s X1s when you discuss them in class.
