January 18*

JOURNAL TOPIC: (today's tunes: "Me and Julio Down By the Schoolyard" by Paul Simon; "Rock & Roll High School" by The Ramones; "My Old School" by Steely Dan)

What's the difference between learning about a book in school and learning about a book on your own?  Now that you have some choices in how you learn and express what you know, how do you think we should study a novel together and compare it with the books you read on your own?

AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Essay

HW:
1. Read your literature analysis book
2. Add a "Follow by Email" gadget to your blog
3. Recruit 20 students from the two RHS course sections to follow your blog

    1. Hi Eli,
      It's easy: 1) go to blogger dashboard and select your course blog; 2) go to "Layout" page; 3) find the "Add a Gadget" link;
      3) In the Gadget dialogue box, click the blue + sign next to "Follow by Email" ; and 4) click Save. View your blog to make sure the feature shows up, and...voila! You're done.
