Dear Class,
The range of topics in our class this year is, I think, the best ever, and that must say some really positive things about how each of you are approaching Theme Writing. Very well done!
I spent quite some time reading and thinking about your research proposal, and then to write my response to you. Overall, proposals were thoughtfully written and very instructive. Your proposal really helps me understand your topic, your ideas, and your position, and then of course to try and help you in the best way I can. For many of you, I have called for you to revise your thesis statement. The thesis statement controls the ideas in your paper and may very well mean minor or major follow-on changes to your Working Outline. I have asked you to post your revised thesis to your e-portfolio & then to let me know when I can check it for you.
For your working outline, the changes many of you make to your thesis will mean that your outline is now somewhat out of date. Therefore, I will check that your outline is complete and was on time. My comments on your research proposal should be read to cover the ideas and their organisation in your outline as well, so please, you should not expect long comments on your outline. However, if I have not asked you to revise your thesis, there may be some points more I could help you with.
To read my comments on your Response Proposal, please go to TW: My Record of Work.
A couple of students' Record of Work is not up to date. This is an important responsibility because it lets you and I know what you have done, and tells me when I need to check your portfolio for new work - in other words it helps me help you. As well, as with everything you do, it is part of my evaluation of you in Theme Writing. Please keep your Record of Work seriously.
Thank you, bye for now, Owen.
