Class Cancelled for MON JAN 26

By now you probably know the campus will close this afternoon and remain closed this evening, cancelling our class for MON JAN 26.

I had hoped to review the best and worst features of your Je Suis Charlie posts with the class, then take you on a guided tour of the model video I annotated as an example of Visual Rhetoric analysis.

Instead, I will have to conduct class via this blog, by posting lecture notes to replace the classroom experience.

Class will meet via blog

You’ll still be responsible for the material I will share via posts, just as I am responsible to conduct a class for you this evening despite the weather. The only difference is, you’ll be able to time-shift reading the material to a slot that may be more convenient than 6:30-7:45.

Watch the blog from time to time to find additional material prepared to replace tonight’s lecture and demonstration.

Assignment A02

There will be no change to the assignment schedule. Click on the Assignments tab in the blog header to reveal the assignment schedule for the entire semester, including A02: Visual Rhetoric Argument, which will still be due before midnight TUE JAN 27.

We hit the ground running in this course, the better to relax at the end of the semester when everyone else is frantically trying to put together portfolios or studying for finals.

Get out and sled, or boogie on a cafeteria tray. And don’t hesitate to reach out for help if there’s anything I can do for you. I’ll see you Wednesday.
