Scholars,
I hope you took the time to listen to Dr. King yesterday, whose eloquence and courage seem to reverberate throughout the media yesterday. If not, don't worry; we will read "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" later in the year.
Today in class we did the following:
Quote quiz from pages 120-248; and
Began to discuss textural evidence to support and undermine a plea of insanity.
I did not pick up your annotations. I reserve the right to do so any day this week, so bring your book every day.
You will also submit your ADQ Checklist to turnitin.com tonight well before midnight. If for some reason you cannot access turnitin.com, please e-mail me your paper before midnight. This mode of transmission should be used by very few of you, if any of you.
Turnitin.com information was transmitted to you via an earlier post last week.
Many of you have asked me today how long each entry needs to be for each movie, book, or source. Answer: two to four sentences. Each entry should serve as a prompt (thanks, Jack Ogden) for you to summon all of the salient information regarding your source as you are writing your essay.
You will bring a hard copy of your ADQ checklist to class tomorrow.
You also received a Mockingbird packet, which is due Friday. Please annotate each time the information in the Mockingbird packet diverges from In Cold Blood.
You will finish the book by Tuesday. Please note all potential evidence regarding insanity.
