SCHMOLL'S ENGLISH 305...WELCOME TO THE COURSE BLOG.
As an online course, the writing that we do in English 305 is substantially different from a face to face course. As such, it is imperative that you understand the course style from the start. Nearly all of your work in this course will be posted on the course blog. EACH WEEK YOU WILL HAVE THREE BLOG ASSIGNMENTS: 1. A BLOG ENTRY, 2. A READING, AND 3. A WRITING ABOUT THE READING.
Your reading and writing on the blog must be completed by the Friday (by midnight) of the week in which the reading falls. You have all week each week to complete the reading and writing for that week, but there are no late assignments accepted, so be sure to be disciplined about the work from the start.
Let me re-state that point; if you do the assigned work before or during the week it is due, you will receive full credit. If you do the work after the Friday of the week it is assigned, you will get zero credit for that week.

NOVEMBER 12...SPECIAL FACE TO FACE MEETING
NOVEMBER 12…REMEMBER, WE MEET TODAY FOR OUR IN CLASS ESSAY.
Greetings, Here's an informational email for you regarding our meeting on Saturday. We will be meeting in the Classroom Building 101. That is a computer lab, so you'll be able to type your essay if you so desire. The in-class essay itself will be an hour long essay, so fairly short, and will be based on a short reading that we do together on Saturday. We will meet from 9-11, so the other hour will be taken up by general course related issues. I will also have your graded Gladwell essays to hand back. Happy writing this week. I look forward to seeing you no Saturday!
