All essays for this class will be posted each week on the classroom page for learners. There is no book purchase necessary for this class.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
The superb essays we will be studying in this class are chosen for mature students who love and can truly engage with great writing. The essays we will discuss and debate deal with topics that include topics such as the purpose and validity of science, interpersonal relations, the goals and frustrations of the writer, class issues. Some essays, such as Once More to the Lake, Souls on Ice, and The Death of the Moth, engage with ideas about mortality, but none of the essays considered in this class are of a graphic and violent nature. If you have questions or concerns please feel free to reach out to me.
All essays for this course will be posted on the classroom page each week. The essays are taken from One Hundred Great Essays by Robert Diyanni (This book is NOT necessary for this class).
