Welcome to our English 100 blog. I'll be posting a few entries this week so you get a feel for how the blog will work. If you've never blogged before, or read blogs, you're missing out! I'll link a few here that I read regularly as well. If there's a particular blog you enjoy and want me to link here, let me know. Who knows? Maybe we'll all find some new regular reading material.

Something to keep in mind here? ANYTHING can make for a strong, useful, interesting academic study. Anything can be analyzed rhetorically (see your first assignments). Any topic can be explored in a way that says something valuable about our general culture, and our individual worlds, and the interesting ways in which they collide. So, consider this blog a way to introduce, develop, debate, and engage ideas and issues that crop up in your writing and your reading.

I will assign, over the course of the semester, ten postings that correspond to work that we're doing. These are required, but you can post whenever you want. As long as what you post has something to do with our course, it's appropriate.

Come on board! You'll be posting this week (see schedule).

Ciao,
Amy
