Enjoyed our discussion at the Museum last week! Sorry it was a bit short and we did not get to everyone’s thoughts within the larger group, but hoping that the smaller group discussions allowed everyone to have a say. Again, sometimes just having a big discussion is not the best manner to have everyone feel involved. Think about this for situations beyond just classroom discussions, such as business meetings where you can help facilitate a discussion that is not dominated by one or two or three individuals. Future ideas as you move on in your academics and beyond into your future employment.
And now on to…
Class updates!
- Remember Art Ducko will be coming in this Friday to present on, and lead us in a workshop about creating zines and comics. Be sure to bring in art supplies to help get work done on your comics!
- I have posted your questions from the #3 discussion prompt to this page on the class site:https://blogs.uoregon.edu/myvisualstory/discussion-questions/. Of note we will be using these questions to inform upcoming Discussion Journal pages and discussions.
- Reminder my Office Support Hours are every Tuesday afternoon between 2:00 and 4:00. You can drop in during this block without reserving a time, but again your requirement to meet with me is to come in with a specific, and well articulated question/concern about the class (or other FIG classes associated with the My Visual Story class). And again if you cannot meet with me during this Tuesday time, please send me an email requesting to set up a meeting time. My office is PLC 58.
- I have updated the schedule for I want to bring out more of our discussion prompts and discussions next week (Week 4), and want to create more of a full class studio work session for Week 5. Please refer to the schedule page here: https://blogs.uoregon.edu/myvisualstory/class-schedule/.
- I have not heard back from First-Year Programs about the availability of tickets for Fun Home. I will email the information as soon as I hear the news!
Lots to take in there, please feel free to email questions!
Best,
Robert
