Week 9 Assignments
I hope you enjoyed the Review Week last week, and this week it's time to get back into the reading once again. The reading for Myth-Folklore is another week of stories from Asia or Africa, while this is the last week of Mahabharata reading in the Indian Epics class.

Here are the Notes guidelines plus all the different Reading Notes Strategies you might want to try. Now that we are in the second half of the semester, that is a great time to begin experimenting, based on what you learned about the reading notes so far and also trying some new things to see what strategies might be helpful for your own reading and writing style.

Here are the final assignments for the week:
PROJECT
|
8 points |
appx. 60-90 min. |
Some of you had a free pass in Week 8, in which case you will be turning in an assignment for Week 9. You will find all the assignment links as usual on the Project Overview page.
If you did not have a free pass for Week 8, you might be eligible for a free pass this week; see details below. To take advantage of the free pass, send me an email with Project Week 9 in the subject line, put "Free Pass" in the body of the email, and then do the Declaration as usual. Your next project assignment will not be due until Week 10.
- In order to take advantage of this free pass for a STORYBOOK, you need to have published your first story in Week 8. If you have not published your first story yet, then you need to turn in a project assignment this week.
- In order to take advantage of this free pass for a PORTFOLIO, you need to have added a second story to your Portfolio in Week 8. If you have not added the second story yet, then you need to turn in a project assignment this week.
I hope that makes sense, and if you have any questions, just let me know!

Here are the instructions for Week 9: Project Feedback. This week there is an option to read a project from the other class if you are curious to see what's happening there.

BLOG COMMENTS |
4 points |
30 min. - 45 min. |
The Blog Comments are a mix of stories this week, mostly from Week 9 but also from earlier weeks. I hope you will see some stories that you enjoy, and you might even get some ideas for storytelling strategies you want to use.

I would urge you to do at least some extra credit every week now that we're into the second half of the semester; it's a great way to build up a cushion of extra points that you might need if you happen to miss some assignments later on as things get more hectic in your other classes. You can check this Progress Chart to see if you are on track for the grade you want to receive in this class. See Week 2 Extra Credit for details.
