From Olivia: Looking ahead . . .

1. On Wednesday, an RN is due (see The Schedule). There will be no leaders for this discussion.
2. DH exercises for practice/extra credit: Read ALL of Ch. 49, and do: 49-1 online. Copy and paste the info into an e-mail to me.
3. Next Monday, an Oral History is due (posted here). The guidelines are as follows:

You must create an oral history document by interviewing someone of interest (can be directly related to our class themes or NOT).

a) choose your subject
b) write questions that will inspire your interview subject to talk about ideas (not just things!)--the questions should be thoughtfully written
c) choose your oral history method (we will have discussed three types)
d) compose an introduction that acts as a framework--include any information you think helps us understand this person
e) post your oral history document (either one page, single-spaced or about 5 minutes audio) on the blog
f) make sure that you tell your interview subject that this will be public--change names, if necessary
