- Part I of Core I due on your blog by 5:00 pm Friday.
- Part II of Core I due on your blog by the start of class on Tuesday, February 2, 2010.
- Read DeVoss (on blog). In class, we will be analyzing DeVoss for rhetorical structure and appeals.
By the way, here is a copy of the Core I assignment just in case you didn't get it or lost it.
Because I've had some questions about how Part I and Part II are different, I added some clarification to the assignment:
In Part I, you are using mostly just your own observations about yourself to reflect on your experiences with technology and where you think you are strongest and where you need to improve. In Part II, you need to actually do some research (whether that is web, talking to someone in your field, or other???) to find out what kind of technology your future career or college major will require. Then in Part II you will reflect on what you will need to do to prepare for this. It takes the more mechanical part that you talk about in I and directs it towards a specific audience (your future employers and professors).
I speculated that in Part I, you would focus more on fun technologies, so Part II is an attempt to aim you more towards the work-oriented technologies that you will be using in class and business.
What's the difference between the first assignment and the second one?
