Reif talks about resisting genres by creating alternatives.
This is something we touched on a little in class last week. Since we are also
instructed to have our students use genres as a sort of scaffolding, how will
you then remove that scaffolding and help them bush past genre into a place
where they can create their own?
As we think about creating our own portfolios for bootcamp
and consider the things Yancey said in this week’s reading, do you think you
will use portfolios for your own classes? If so, what purpose will they serve?
Amanda,
ReplyDeleteIn answer to your second question, I'm liking the idea of a portfolio at the end of the term. I say this as a person who in fact hates computers and technology, but I'm also looking at a stack of all my written works from schooling that is not saved in one place where I can go back and read them. I think this is a starting off point for college students. To collect their writings throughout their time at Florida State. We can help them do that and to see how far they've come as writers and students.
