Please complete readings before coming to class. Where readings feel too long or your weeks are tight, feel free to skim the readings for concepts that most interest you. These readings will be the jumping-off point for our discussions and can form the basis of responses in your portfolios.
If you like, you are welcome to use the social annotation tool Hypothesis to aid your reading; we will intoduce you to Hypothesis in the first class, and Brenna and Jamie will use it to guide your reading. Using Hypothesis is not mandatory.
