Computer Work Assignment due in two days: Because THE SECRET OF WRITING IS REWRITING respond to projects of others by Feb 21. Responses that consist solely of generic phrases, such as "Good Job," that do not reveal detailed knowledge of the project, will not be acceptable. You must respond in sufficient detail to reveal that you have read the project closely. Let the author of the essay know how it affected you as a reader, where you were pleased, where you got confused, where irritated, etc. In general, evaluate the other students' essays as works of art. If each essay were, say, a statue, which little as well as big flaws should be corrected?

Respond to at least half the class. 2 points for each response IF for each person you suggest [1] how to expand the essay and [2] how to revise one of the sentences.

[1] You must quote a whole sentence of the student's essay that has not been quoted by a previous respondent and specify where the sentence needs improvement and then rewrite the sentence to improve it. For the subject line of your reply, paste in the sentence you are going to rewrite so that it will be easier for others to see what sentences are left for revision.

[2] In addition, you must make suggestions on how to add a page or more of new material.

Grading: Remember that responding properly to the correct number of projects before the deadline is not just part of your class participation grade but also, and more importantly, your portfolio grade (14% of your final grade). For your portfolio you will print out all of your responses to other students and their quality will be fairly obvious in that format.

You must respond to at least half the class in detail. You get extra credit for every three people over the required half of the class to whom you respond. This extra credit can be used to improve your class participation grade.

Journal Entry [2 copies]: write your responses to two Impressionist paintings of nature of your choice. You can use any sources you wish, though you must provide documentation for whatever source[s] you use.

If you want to use the web you can start with the sites below. The first is about the whole Impressionist school; the second shows how to move from that site to a specific painter, in this case Monet; the third and fourth are alternative Van Gogh sites; the last two are sites from students in this class in the past focusing on their favorite paintings.

To get some idea of the possible relation between painting and

poetry I have designed two pages: on Hopkins and Monet, on Hopkins and

Van Gogh.
