Welcome to the 2024 UO’s First-Year College Connections course, My Visual Story: Comics and Personal Storytelling!
We are excited to be working with you all this fall term!
Our College Connections course connects ENG 280: Introduction to Comic Studies and ASIA 399 Special Studies: Japanese Popular Culture in the World (very cool classes this year!). This Fall term we will be helping you begin your journey as a student at the UO. As part of this journey we will be working with you to bring out your interests along with what you are learning in all courses as an introduction to the rich academic offerings the UO has to offer.
We will be meeting Tuesdays, 4:00pm-5:20pm (check your DuckWeb account for the room location).
There is a Canvas site open for this course so you can easily find a link to this main site where all the main information will be posted. We use this blog site so we can build on the information from previous years to make this a more robust educational experience that connects you what previous cohorts have done, just like you!
See these sections of this site:
- 2024 Resources for the syllabus, assignment documents, and other resource links.
- 2024 Class Schedule with information about our weekly schedule.
- Your instructors! Learn more about Robert and Mazzy here!
- Class Expectations, our basic expectations for what we will offer you as students of this FIG and what we expect from you.
- Class Introduction for information about the three courses associated with this FIG.
Please check back to this site for more updates as the terms progresses!
Best,
Robert and Mazzy!
Time to have some fun and be creative this Fall!
