Reflection and Response on Reading Assignments and Your Learning Style

Please comment on how we have had more independent reading time with smaller discussion groups.  This feedback will be very useful in planning our final unit on The Road as well as my preparation for next year's classes.

Please don't feel obligated to fill up this blog post with a lot of words.  I'm really just looking for your honest response on how the schedule of reading time, quizzes, discussions and papers have worked for you as an individual.  The more honest you can be, the more helpful it will be for me - and, potentially, for you since I can still apply some of your suggestions to this final unit.

NO LENGTH REQUIREMENT
DUE: End of day (11:59PM) Sunday, May 20

Suggested topics to discuss:
***Please restrict your discussion to how we study books***

• small group versus large group discussions
• independent reading time versus daily assignments
• online quizzes versus paper quizzes
• note-taking during reading
• forum posts and blog writing
• instruction of literary devices
• activities you have done in other classes that have helped with analyzing literature
