Classes reading Dracula or War of the Worlds should read through chapter 12 before Monday, December 10.

I have been extremely impressed with your MGRP presentations so far. After we finish the presentations on Monday, we will continue our discussion of Dracula or War of the Worlds. Our calendar for next week looks like this:

As you can see, we will be writing our first MGRP essay next weekend. This week will be devoted to discussing and taking notes over your sources (the book and "other" source you presented last week, and two "other" sources to be found before Wednesday and Thursday) in small groups. Each group member will write a different essay over his or her topic, but the group will work together to create the outlines and ideas for each essay. This is a good chance for each of you to get "outside" of your topic and find new ideas and ways to look at it.

You must submit a completed outline to me on Friday. You will have some time in class to work on it, but I will ask to see them before the end of the hour so I can make suggestions or just be impressed.

As always, post your questions for the good of the community.
