Though I meant to pick up a suggestion from your answers to the ten questions so that I could customize what I wanted you to do with the personal narrative in Unit 2, I frankly ran out of time to do justice to such an activity for most of you.
As I mentioned in a more recent communication on our class blog,
If I don’t say something like “Please tell me more about this in your Unit 2 A1 assignment,” what you’ll want to do for U2A1 is tell me a story about yourself. Make it about some incident that helped you become who you are today.
Then there's all the other stuff I have in the syllabus and in and under the Personal Narrative tab in our course's shell.
Excepting Unit 5, which has no A1 assignment, your A1 is due the last day of the unit by midnight. Everything else is due two days before the end of the unit. For this second unit, that'd mean your addition to the discussion activity should be in by midnight the 11th with the A1 narrative essay in by midnight the 13th.
For Unit 2, I won't be too rigorous in this regard but will be more absolute in the future. Scheduling events this way allows me to grade/review your efforts for all of the secondary bits of the unit over the weekend so that I can turn my full attention to your unit A1 essay Monday evening.
All for now--and remember turning in something early if you've really worked on it is always a good thing.
