Reflection on Group 1

I really enjoyed this groups presentation. I guess I could say I am more thankful than anything. I am taking my pre internship classes this semester. I have LS 3010 with Dr. Allison Baer, and in this class we are asked to explore multiple ways of presenting literature. One of her projects she has us do is building a multi genre peice on anything. After listening to her explanation I thought I understood what I was supposed to do, however, when I started the piece I was lost. As a result, coming to class and learning about multi genre pieces specifically helped to clarify most of the fogginess of the project.

I thought the group was impressively prepared. They came almost over prepared in case some tasks ran over on time, but there was always something for us to do. The groups gave examples and many prompts and materials to start a creative brain storm. Coinciding with thier prepardness and their organization, I learned a lot about multi genre projects.

2.) can you talk about some of the methods you used in your book, on how to develop a class community?

3.) How do you correct some social injustices within your class?
