ENGLISH 353: pw Critical Review & Evaluation of Fiction & Film
4.00 Credits
University of Missouri-Kansas City
The weekend component of this block meets one weekend per month for a total of 70 contact hours. The goal of the course is to improve students' writing skills along with their ability to read and analyze texts, both literary and cinematic. During the course students will read four novels and a set of critical essays, one for each weekend, which will be followed by viewing and discussing a film adaptation of the novel in class. Various critical approaches will be included in the reading and will be discussed in class in an effort to enable students to apply these critical principles in their own critical essays. Because the class meets only one weekend per month and a process approach to writing is utilized, students will be encouraged to use the facilities of the internet to share drafts of their essays with their peer revision group members and with the instructors during the weeks between class meetings. Students will bring revised drafts of their work to the weekend meeting where a significant amount of class time will be spent in writing workshops. Students will be assessed on the basis of their portfolios of critical writing consisting of four major essays and an extensive cover letter, their reading/viewing journals, and their participation, both in class and in peer response groups. Prerequisites: WEPT. Offered: I weekend/month for 4 months. P 4 hrs
