Faculty Introduction

See the About Me section for more about me!

Course Description
This is a special section of the standard freshman composition course, focusing on writing about food. The curriculum is specially designed to highlight different modes of writing using food-related examples. When we write about food, we are often writing about our deepest appetites: for nourishment, for love, for connection. This course will provide you with excellent examples of both fictional and non-fiction writing about food, along with assignments geared to various modes of discourse, and will facilitate your process of learning to write clearly and correctly. You will write four three-page essays during the term as well as a one-page narrative essay, a one-page expanded definition and a one-page restaurant review. In addition, you will write a five-page research paper which must contain proper MLA citation.

Methods of Instruction
We will be reading selections from Choice Cuts, edited by Mark Kurlansky, which will be available at the South Campus bookstore, as well as from Diana Hacker's A Writer's Reference, 6th Edition. I'll supplement our textbook with additional readings related to the essays you write, and you will also be required to carry out online exercises in grammar, punctuation and research. Your online class participation is an important part of the learning process, responding to readings and asking questions.

This is a 3-credit hour course. Normally, during a face-to-face 16-week course, students would meet twice a week for 1.5 hours each class. This, however, is an 8-week course, so students can expect to spend at least 6 hours a week working on their online course. Students should be prepared for reading, discussion and essay assignments each week, which will require a combination of on-line and off-line time commitment.

Learning Outcomes
This course requires students to master four general learning outcomes:

• Be able to compose units of discourse and provide ideas and information suitable to the purpose and the audience.
• Be able to transmit ideas and information in effective written language by employing good diction, conventional sentence structure, and standard written American English grammar and usage.
• Be able to locate and evaluate primary and secondary sources and incorporate the relevant information into a paper documented internally and bibliographically.
  
• Be able to read assignments with a view to their artistic merits, content, logical progression and thoroughness of citations (if any).

In addition to the required texts, you must have access to a computer with Microsoft Word and Internet access. If you do not have computer access at home, computers are available at various locations on the BC South campus, including the library and the Learning Resource Center.

Course Description

Writing and the Philosophy of Harry Potter is a Learning Community that will engage students in thinking critically and philosophically when writing about the Harry Potter books.

Methods of Instruction

Students will write essays and do other activities, including (but not limited to) an Identi-kit, a presentation, and a research paper. More specific information on assignments will be posted in the Course Syllabus. Grades will be calculated based on work done and class participation.

Learning Outcomes

• Students will learn to apply their reading and writing skills to philosophical texts and popular culture, specifically the Harry Potter books and movies.
• Students will learn and be able to apply philosophical and rhetorical terminology to academic and non-academic content.
• Students will be able to improve their ability to respond creatively to real-world problems.
• Students will be able to discover the connection between literature, philosophy, and their everyday lives.

Course Materials and Requirements

A partial list of books required for this course includes the following:

• Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling*
• Any college level dictionary

*Students should be familiar with the Harry Potter book series as there will be multiple references to all seven books. The movies become drastically different than the books, so while familiarity with the movies is nice, students need to be comfortable with the books.

NOTE: This list will be updated before the term starts. Check back often to get updated list of books.

In addition to books, students should have easy access to a computer (computers are available on campus for student use), a USB drive, writing equipment (a.k.a. pen and paper!) and a notebook for organizing and saving work.

A note on Internet access and necessary software: You must have access to a computer with a word processor such as MS Word. This is the preferred program as assignments will be turned in using Blackboard and Turnitin, which only accept *.doc, *.rtf, and *.pdf. WordPerfect and MS Works are not recognized by Turnitin; therefore, unless you are able to convert from either into MS Word or any of the aforementioned, I would suggest not to use them. Also, keep in mind the following:

• You will need a BC E-mail address
• You will need a library card in order to access online research materials. If you do not have a Broward County library card (note there's a difference between Broward COLLEGE and Broward COUNTY libraries - as a BC Student, you can have access to both), you can get one at the South Campus library by showing your paid tuition bill. You can get library information here.
