Thinking about world literature and what it all means

August 10, 2010
I am about to embark on another semester at my college and am teaching World Literature II for the first time in 6 years. I want to figure out a way to make it engaging and relevant for students. I am going to have students keep a blog throughout the semester, subscribe to classmates' blogs, and to find other blogs to subscribe to that have a connection with world literature. The goal is to create a space that is culturally, academically, and technically relevant. Wish me luck!

  4. Lets be honest in World Literature You must be able to think outside the box. One must think of the who, the what why where and even include in your thoughts the time in the world the action takes place. A blog thought new to me will be interesting and a fun way to express your writeing as well as your thought process.
