Week #3

Information for Week #3 & Link for Week #3 Images

There is no required reading for this week, as I mistakenly canceled the class’s purchase of Gordon Parks’ autobiography. The book, A Choice of Weapons, is totally worth the read, however, especially if you grow interested in Parks’s photographs. I do request, in light of the absence of reading for Week #3, that you Google Parks and familiarize yourself with his personal formation as a photographer, his aesthetic, and the time period in which he photographed. This will invariably strengthen the inference paragraph of your annotated bibliography assignment. Annotated Bibliography #2 is due Monday, September 14, at midnight. Please be courteous and submit your work on time. If posting doesn’t happen by this date, I may have to start awarding Fs to work not submitted by the deadline. I don’t want to do this, so let’s please be conscious that commenting on others’ posts is important. Please put more effort into your bibliographies and comments. I will be emailing you your grades for Annotated Bibliographies 1 and 2 by the end of week three. If you increase your efforts this week, your first week grade will also improve.
