Welcome to the Adaptation Blog

Hi All,

I'm going to ask each of us (me included) to blog ONCE PER CYCLE for the rest of the year. Each blog post should be between 400 and 1,100 words long. We should think of this as an opportunity to share or expand upon an idea that comes out of our reading, our viewing, our class discussions, or a response to someone else's blog post. We are free to post links to other sources or online articles we'd like to draw into our discussion.

In addition to POSTING, we should plan to COMMENT at least once per cycle, on a different day than you comment. Please note: this is intended, in part, as practice for INFORMAL BUT INFORMED ONLINE WRITING. You can be more relaxed than you would be in your average paper, but should pay attention to spelling, sentence structure, etc. Have some fun, but keep in mind that this is an academic forum.

The schedule for posting will be as follows:

DAY ONE (after class): Amanda, Henry, Catherine
DAY TWO (after class): Naomi, Christina, Michael
DAY THREE (after class): Sophie, Lauren, Ean
DAY FOUR (after class) Joe, Melina, Jenny
DAY FIVE (after class) Hannah, Molly, Colin
