HOMEWORK: For your homework this weekend, I want you to find 5 sources (either book sources or sources from the links on the right of our class blog) and bring them in for your next class (print out each of your print sources or give me a transcript of your video/audio source). You will be creating a part of your annotated bibliography (click here), so please bring appropriate laptops, paper, etc to class.
BLOGPOST: Furthermore, I want you nail down your thesis for your paper. Give me 3-4 directions you could take your video game. It doesn't have to be definite, but I want you to at least get out 3-4 ideas with 2-3 sentences describing each direction. We can expand on your ideas in class, but it is good to have an initial road map while we work on our annotated bibliography during class time next week. As always, print out your blogpost because it will help you on the quiz in class.
BLOGS IN GENERAL: Finally, for those of you who haven't, please go through and catch up on your blogs. Midterms will be coming up soon and all of you should have at least 4 blogposts. The information in the blogs are contained on the postings below, so please consult the postings or your classmates before asking me any questions.
