For Monday: Gopnik

I am looking forward to reading your film reviews!  That's my homework for the weekend.

For You:

For Monday's class, please read "The Caging of America" by Adam Gopnik.  At least once (preferably a couple of times) and prepare very careful and exhaustive notes.  You may use the technique of a double-entry journal (explanation found here) or Cornell notes (explanation here).  Our entire class on Monday will be focused on this reading.  If you have not done it, you may as well not come to class. But don't you dare not come to class.  If you miss class on Monday, you will miss assignment of a group for the annotated bibliography and presentations.  You will be very, very confused and behind.  

This Gopnik reading is at the center of everything we will be doing for the rest of the term.
