Welcome to my reading log for ENG 705 Reading Visual Cultures.
Reading log: to be handed in periodically, and submitted in entirety at the end of the course (worth 20%)
Students will maintain a log (or blog) of responses to their readings and lectures. I will on occasion give you actual topics to explore in the logs. The rest of the time, your log may take the form of any or any combination of notes, questions — with some attempt to find answers — further secondary research, or even a creative engagement or reworking of principles and ideas plus a commentary on that creative praxis. They should not be merely a diary of likes and dislikes.
You should aim to produce about 250 words per week. Your reading log will be evaluated on the quality of the intellectual engagement displayed therein. I want to see you grappling with the material, not remaining passive and disengaged.
