Assignment 2: situating yourself in English 101
1. Please read all of the Student
Guide, the Course Description, and your class
syllabus. As you read, mark those places in the texts that seem surprising,
interesting, confusing, difficult, striking, or noteworthy. In addition, you
should use the margins to write questions and comments about these documents.
2. Create a blog post and title it Assignment 2. Based on your notes,
comments, and questions, write a few paragraphs in which you describe your
impression of this course, using specific examples from the Student Guide. Consider the following:
a. What do you expect from this class?
b. Do not hesitate to be critical of what you read and have heard
about this course, but be careful to distinguish what you have heard about the
course from what you expect based on what you have read in the course
materials.
c. Consider how being a writer in English 101 might relate to being a
writer in other situations.
3. Finally, include in your blog post any questions or concerns you
have about the class, its policies, procedures, and expectations, based on the
first class and your reading of the course materials. As you write down a
question or concern, explain why it is a question or concern.
4. Publish your post and
bring your books to our next class meeting.
