Welcome to our summer term in Oxford!
Welcome to our blog!
This is the place where we will practice the fundamentals of critical thinking as we blog about the course's topics and our experience studying/teaching/living abroad. Remember that our writing here should reflect our thought process and learning experience as we go through the course and the experience of living in Oxford.
Hence, our posts should be a thoughtful and creative expression of ourselves. So, feel free to complement your posts with images or other media.
Remember that your entries will be of two types:
- Open topic entries: You are free to analyze, comment and/or reflect on any of the topics and readings we will cover in class. You can also write about your group project or about a particular cultural experience. Be warned that mere description won't meet my expectations.
- Responses/comments to entries: A good blog builds a community. In that spirit, you should comment on the entries posted by your classmates or by me, be those open topic entries or responses to others’ posts. Your comments must be substantive and add to the conversation. In other words, merely stating “I agree” or “good point” is not nearly enough.
