Yes, Tuesday the 2nd is here!

> Due: Two bookmarks to Diigo + blog post with link to draft preview/trailer.

>
Discuss and workshop previews/trailers. Look at the blog list. Look at / read the preview/trailer post of the blog above yours. Write them a brief response. Give your reactions - love it, hate it? - and suggestions for improvement. Once you finish your response, go to the next one up - if you get to the top, go to the bottom of the list - and respond to at least two blogs in total.

>
Work on previews/trailers.

>
Consider the text in your preview/trailer as "taglines" (like on a movie poster: slogans and memorable phrases, capturing the tone and concept of your project). For each tag line, think of viewpoints for and against. Develop tag lines into assertions, arguments, claims...

> Next, what evidence do you need to explore thse viewpoints? What is the "theory" of your project? i.e. What are the arguments that organize the evidence and that represent your point of view? The next step is creating an annotated bibliography that contains your evidence.

> Remember Thursday's homework: read Foucault, "What is an Author?" (link on syllabus)
