[Positions] Essaying Week 1

Draft/ Trial: Essay-Trial.mp4

General
  • Essay as representing your changing enquiry; enquiry formed through process
  • Your structure/ process can be circular or linear or whatever suits it best
  • Process, knowledge and enquiry: how that changes and evolves
  • What are the thematic questions in your enquiry? Consider a suitable narrative structure
  • Consider: listing your research questions and methods you’ve used – link both in your script; also think about your key references (text and otherwise)
Feedback
  • Consider the large and individual (smaller) aspects of your project; perhaps most captivating to begin with the personal. (Example; reference of Mahar’s story) – and then you can take a step back and explain your project/ enquiry
  • Ways of language learning
  • Adding the textbooks (qaidas) as ways of learning the language – personal process as well as project process through the past few weeks
  • Possible structure/ order: Start with your mom, go back in time – “this is where I am now.” (i.e. language learning and what it communicates; starting with writing and how it’s inseparable with conversations/ spoken language
  • The textbook as an object and it’s meaning(s)
  • The experiments as failing or lacking a depth (depth as present or absent)
  • Can decide how much weight/ time to spend on the work produced and outputs
