Welcome to the blog for English 151: Ecocompositon. On this blog, our class will be sharing and exploring our always-growing relationships with place. In addition to this virtual meeting place, each student will also maintain his/her own blog, which will be linked up as soon as class starts.
This will be a really cool quarter. Our formal writing will be prompted by various experiences like a tour of campus, explorations of local sustainability programs, and popular environmental documentaries. Students will work on several academic and "real-world" projects, like rhetorical analyses, researched arguments, and informational documents that raise awareness of campus history and design.
I can't wait to see how my students' and my own perceptions of place and environment develop over the quarter. Hopefully we'll all walk away with a greater understanding of our personal relationships with place and a more thorough awareness of the roles we play in global environmental issues.
