Purpose:
Extending our “long hello,” this exercise once again highlights ways in which a medium/method/genre conducts what we might convey about ourselves. These exercises in methodology, so to speak, highlight the importance of being aware of the methods one brings to their research. (You will articulate your methodologies in future assignments, especially in light of ethnographic and interdisciplinary methods we’ll study.) This exercise also asks you to think about what aspects of yourself might be translatable to global audiences, what kinds of things might get “lost in translation.” The use of Popplet here is actually designed to produce some awkwardness: maybe think of ways this exercise approximates the dynamics of your having to convey a sense of self in a strange land?
Instructions:
For this assignment, you are taking your original “Where I’m From” poem and remediating it into a Popplet. Take 10 key moments/lines/phrases (no more, no less; just 10 Popplet windows–not counting your title Popplet) from the poem and present them in Popplet form–use drawings, pictures, or other features, along with words (if you want) to enhance your poem. Keep our readings/discussions in mind as you choose how to represent yourself this time around. Also keep in mind changes you make/decisions you make along the way: this will help with the reflective portions of this assignment to follow.
After you draft your Popplet, if you like, take a shot at making a screencast. You can perform on the screencast if you like–like I tried to do 🙁 –or just let your voice and Popplet speak for itself. You might even figure out some better way to present your Popplet; that’d be cool too. (The Popplet is the only constraint here. If you have a good idea as to how to best present it, go for it!) The Popplet tutorial is below. If you want to use the screencast, you’ll want your Popplet on your screen when you go to Screencast-o-matic (https://screencast-o-matic.com/account#inviteLinks to an external site.). In Screencast-o-matic, there’s a box at the bottom left that allows me to choose screen or camera or both. I picked both–that’s why you can see me reading. I don’t think I did a very good job at this point, but the exercise helped me think quite a bit about the switch in genres, the implications of bringing multiple modalities into play, and the ways ideas of diversity shaped my selection process. Maybe we’ll all get better ideas as to how to make our projects look once we get a look at what a few other class members have done. You’ll see below the eCampus added a closed caption version of my screencast–any product you produce that involves audio should also include close captioning.
Another way to present your Popplet would be to include the full text of your “Where I Am From Poem”—this is a way to ensure that your product is accessible to a broad audience.
Also, to help anyone with visual disabilities, you could in the comment column offer a very brief description of each slide (e.g. slide 1: a man and a woman holding a baby; slide 4: a forest scene; slide 9: a cartoon of a vulture with a knife.)
I’ve also received these instructions from Kit Kirby (kirbyk@miamioh.edu) at eCampus on how you might include closed captioning yourself. You can try the below suggestions–Kit has also invited anyone to contact her for more personalized instruction:
“At the moment, unfortunately, we do not have anything in Canvas that can add closed captions to student video responses natively (or easily). If students want to add their own closed captions, they can download their videos from Files – Uploaded Media – and then add them to their private YouTube channels. YouTube can auto-caption and then students can edit the auto-captions for accuracy. This way is the quickest, easiest and least expensive (it’s free!). Students could also use Amara.org to do closed captions (also free), but would still need to take the video recording out of Canvas and put it in YouTube. ScreenPal will let students record and has capability to do closed captions, but you have to pay to upgrade their subscription.
We are actively exploring ways of making this easier and bringing closed captioning natively into Canvas, but we are probably a year or two off from anything happening.
ChatGPT can create transcripts for videos, but it is not terribly accurate (requires editing) and you would need to write timing information to turn the transcript into a SRT closed caption file. I haven’t been able to successfully do that myself yet, so I can’t endorse it personally, but it is possible.”
Post your draft by the end of the due date listed on the calendar and respond to the other writers to which you’ve been assigned by the end of the next school day. Canvas will automatically assign you papers to review. You can learn about that Canvas function by watching this Feedback Overview (Links to an external site.).

After watching the Toni Morrison BBC Documentary Links to an external site.and reading The Language Must Not Sweat, I want you to consider the role of the Black artist to Black community. In this country now, we are facing a crisis of trust in institutions. They say your generation does not trust education, the media, church, or the police, but do you trust Black artists to be honest? Do we trust artists to paint accurate pictures of Black America and Black Americans?

I am asking that you use the quote sandwich structure to compose your own moment

I am asking that you use the quote sandwich structure to compose your own moment of close reading around a single quote from any of the four fairy tales attached in the pdf.
Remember to choose your quote carefully: ensure that is juicy, idea-rich, unusual ambiguous and/or elicits a strong gut reaction.
When articulating your own claim about the quote, ensure that the claim is: original, interpretive, and rooted in the quote.
There is no distinct prompt for this assignment, but you may choose to make a claim (and choose a quote) that speaks to one or more of the following themes. But if you want to make a claim about something else that excites you, feel free!
(please follow the quotation sandwich instructions strictly from both of the screenshots attached aside of the pdf)
Thank you,
Respectfully.

Instructions
Reader’s Response: Compare the initiation experiences of the protagonist of two of the initiation stories (Faulkner, Bambara, and Munro). Decide if one character’s initiation experience is more relatable to readers than another or if they both are relatable. Explanations and connections are imperative. The paper will vary in length but should be between 700-1000 words.
As you have learned, you will need to begin your paper with the summative details of the stories before jumping to comparisons and your argument. Ensure you have a strong thesis statement that includes the focus of your argument.
Here is the material that must be read to write better 🙂
