Bring a printout of your peer review essay so that we can discuss it briefly in class.
I will collect your paper via Turnitin.com.

Signing Up
No more than 2 students per class period. Sign up by posting a comment indicating that you'd like to present for the day. I'll respond by creating a separate blog entry listing you as a presenter (putting you on the agenda for the day.) Please sign up at least two class periods ahead of your requested date.
The Presentation
Perform a close reading of a selection (3 minutes), AND introduce a peer-reviewed scholarly work (3 minutes) that you can use to launch a discussion (5-10 minutes) on a non-obvious, non-trivial point related to the reading. ("The reading" might include a literary work mentioned in Roberts, or the primary text we're scheduled to discuss for the day.) I will help the discussion along, but you're free to set your own goals.
I suggest that you prepare by writing a richly-linked, informal blog post, which explains your inquiry process. This can be conversational, and it can mention dead ends and false leads.
Rather than read from this blog entry during class, I ask instead that you prepare a different presentation, one that emphasizes the strongest points you've found at the end of your inquiry (rather than walking us through the whole process that led you here.)
After the presentation, e-mail me a reflective summary, in which you assess the class reaction.
