Students can also consider what they learned, what they found impactful or compelling, their reaction to the material, what questions they still have, etc. These essays provide students the freedom to emphasize particular issues and to be analytically and theoretically creative.NO elaborate introductory paragraph or conclusion paragraph is needed, just ONE sentence to introduce your topic and ONE sentence to close your essay.NO bibliography is needed, since you will be using information from the class syllabus.Throughout the essays, students should MUST provide reference to the course materials they are using (e.g., reading, video, lecture). If available, include page numbers. Examples: [Vandana Menon discusses .…] or [Vargas states…. (p. 45)] or […. (Lecture 4B)] or [In the Wet Sand video…]. Do NOT include long quotes from the readings in your essays. Do NOT include any reading or video materials outside the class.Each weekly essay is separate, although you can consider how they build upon the material you learn during the quarter. You should write each essay at the end of each week while the material is fresh in your mind.

These two assignments are related because you will edit and expand your discussion-board posts to create the FiveTop-Fourlists for your mid-term and final. (The mid-term is shorter: FiveTop-Three)“Five-Top-Four” means “My top FourItems in Each of Five Categories:” 1) Japan, 2) Feminism, 3) Love, 4) Literature, 5) Voice. “Items” can mean a question and answer, or a quote and short (2-4sentences) discussion, or some combination.In most cases, starting from a quote is best. This allowsyou to reference a specific moment in the week’s readingand open the conversation from there.Be creative and flexible making “items”. Items shouldbe interesting and smart. Eachstudent will submit,for both the mid-term and the final,five lists with four(threefor the mid-term) items each.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1boirF-Ku7qSa-ki8M...
