Study Skills? You Bet!

You can find the last task on Anne Bradstreet on the lecture page 13 – right menu!

Enjoy!

The sign according to Pierce

You may download a PDF version of the slides used for our discussion last time and today on the various concepts of signs, symbols and representation (go to the Document section!).

It may help you to remember what we talked about and found out about the complexities of looking and interpreting cultural artefacts, especially visual representations.

And, of course, the slides may also help you to discuss the questions which I put up in the Task section – in fact, you need the last slide with the sequence of Lange’s photographs to contruct your ‘narrative’.

Thanks for a lively discussion and I am looking forward to continue along these lines next time!

At last all slides of all session are available as of now. You just go to the general file folder of the class in StudIP, or try this link:

Early American Slides

(This may only work if you are logged in to StudIP…)

Got ya, heh?

But it is all true, after all: The new task page is up for the lecture, with lots of images and short questions (with long answers…).

Hunters and collectors, aren’t we all?

Looking forward to your answers!

In case you were looking for the text by Stuart Hall (required reading for taks and class), you will find it on the Document page (you may have to scroll down a bit).

I also added a link to the title on the task page for session 9.

So now you have no more excuses and can do your homework!

Enjoy your weekend, too

Hopefully this will not impair your weekend spirits: the new questions have been posted in the Early American Lecture section.

Enjoy! And your weekend!

The lecture tomorrow (January 19th) had to be cancelled due to another urgent meeting. Please hand in your forms until noon tomorrow the latest!

There will be a new set of questions before Thursday, please check these pages or StudIP.

Thanks and good luck!

…for the Study Skills tasks on Raisin. Sorry for the technical oversight – which could be repaired thanks to Roland!

Go to  page 9 of the Lecture tasks in the menu on the right. Follow the instructions. Thanks!

Well, there’s an argument – and I hope you may want to continue our lively discussion about the conflict between mothers and daughters by taking care of the next task, no. 8.

Which you now will find in writing on the newest addition to our task pages.

Don’t be square, go there!
