- As much as you're comfortable, discuss what you wrote about in your Moodle Post last week (special points, interesting themes, awesome quotes that hit you, etc.)
- Really dig in. Challenge each other on points. Ask each other questions! "What do you mean when you say..." "How so?" "Can you give an example, to help me understand?"
- Decide on 1-2 that you'd like to share with the Family.
- We'll share out in 15 minutes or so, depending on how things are going. Please respect family time by limiting device usage to looking up articles/relevant info.
- Make sure I tell you my sister's unconventional path through schooling, to education.
9. Next Week...
Moodle Blog Post: Due Sunday by 11:59pm
TO DO BEFORE CLASS (by 11:59pm, Jan. 28):
Read the articles "Developing Social Justice Literacy" as well as "Good and Just Teaching."
Drawing from quotes in both readings (be specific about page numbers) and the video, develop a response to the following prompts and post it to Moodle:
- Thinking back to our discussion of education, schooling, and how we would know if someone was educated, how does social justice relate to education? Should social justice necessarily be addressed through education? If so, why? If not, where else in society could social justice be addressed? Is social justice simply an everyday life practice (e.g., activism)? Can it be taught?
- Choose one thing that was said in one of the articles or video that you really agreed with and one thing that you clearly did not agree with. Explain why you agree and disagree with each of these points.
Again, refer to the rubric and optional feedback from Jadyn as to how to structure your writing and how to show you are engaging critically with the readings. You want to make sure you are putting your best foot forward.
Link to actual Moodle Post here to write your assignment.
Writing Drawing Assignment
- Brainstorm what you do when you receive a writing assignment. For example, when I first receive an assignment, I look at it and panic, bury it in my backpack, and procrastinate. I often follow that up with several days of working on other things, drinking coffee, napping, and stress. When I finally do look at the assignment again, it's usually the week (or the day before) it's due, at which point I spend a lot of time at the bar, writing and drinking beer. I almost never make an outline of what I'm going to write ahead of time, preferring to simply free-write. This in turn leads to a lot of deleting and rewriting. Delete. More beer, write. Send to my friend Carrie, at which point she tells me I'm trying to do/say too much and to slash it in half. Which I usually do. Then I add more! Ultimately I wind up with an A quite often, but only after a lot of stress.
- Illustrate your process! I chose a graphic-novel style for mine, but you can choose to draw it differently if you'd like.
- Next class, you'll share your process with others in the class!
