Spring 2017
Welcome to the Pirate Projects: a showcases of student blogs exploring the context of historical and contemporary representations of pirates. Students developed individual projects, but focused on sharing their research through collaborative blogs. Enjoy your virtual voyage with the pirates!
Spring 2016
Our 1102 Spring 2016 Caribbean theme was Voyages of the Caribbean. Each student "adopted" an island or country in the Caribbean Basin -the area in and surrounding the Caribbean Sea. Their research projects focus on learning more about their island or country and its history and culture. As in other classes, the goal is for students to read and write from a rhetorical perspective that views texts as W.O.V.E.N. artifacts (Written, Oral, Visual, Electronic, Non-verbal). In other words, language and texts are more than just print symbols. We communicate through multiple modes. Therefore, we practice W.O.V.E.N through "writing" blogs.
