In-class Writing and Homework

On your blogs, write about an event with which you were involved that required you to respond with some type of action (written or verbal).  Here are some things to consider when constructing your post:
  • Identify what happened.
  • Who was involved?
  • How did you respond/what action to did you take?
  • Was your response in writing or in person?
  • What was your demeanor/tone?  How did you act?
  • Did you consider your audience in the moment?
  • How did your "audience" respond?
  • Did you achieve your intended purpose?
  • Looking back on the situation, is there anything you would have done differently?  Why or why not?
Your written assignment for this week is to write a response to the Good Thunder event that we attended during class.  I will have access to the archived session soon in case you wanted to listen to the reading again; please contact me via email if you're interested.  The assignment sheet for this paper is available under the Content section of D2L.
