週あたり 4+ 時間. Reading assignments will be required prior to each class meeting. Daily writing assignments will also be offered. I will provide grading and feedback on these assignments if it is desired. In order to receive a grade or a certificate of completion for the course, students must complete these assignments. Given that this is a bootcamp, completion of the written assignments is very strongly encouraged even if a student doesn’t wish to receive a grade or a certificate.Letter Grade

Course Description: In this four-day bootcamp, students will read and discuss several authors’ perspectives on the creative writing process, and apply the techniques they learn to create their own complete short story. Class meetings will utilize a Socratic format where the instructor facilitates a discussion using guided questions. This enables students to interact with each other, the instructor, and the content more actively than in a traditional lecture-style course. Please note that this course will explore a variety of potentially difficult topics, ideas, and events from divergent perspectives. It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to review the overview section below in order to determine if they want their child to analyze and discuss this content. I’m happy to answer any questions you may have. *****All learners will be required to have their cameras on for the duration of the live class meetings. This promotes an engaged learning environment for all students.***** Assignments and Grading Policies: Each class meeting will have an assigned reading of something a professional writer has to say about the creative writing process. Students are free to read more of each text if they so choose, but the class discussion and written assignments will focus on the assigned passages. It is important that students do the assigned readings in order to get the most out of the bootcamp. Given the high level of these examples, I only expect that students have made a good faith effort to adopt best practices in their own work, not that they have always successfully done so. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to submit written work for feedback and grading. In order to obtain a grade or obtain a certificate, students must draft and revise a roughly 1000-word short story. Given that this is a bootcamp, completion of the written assignments is very strongly encouraged even if a student doesn’t wish to receive a grade or a certificate. The use or aid of any AI tools or large language models is prohibited for written assignments in this bootcamp. *****Readings and written assignments are placed on the date that they are due on the syllabus, not the date that they are assigned.*****

修士号 Northern Illinois Universityから 哲学 へ
学士号 Illinois Wesleyan Universityから 哲学 へ
I have a BA in Philosophy with minors in Political Science and Greek and Roman Studies, as well as an MA in Philosophy with a concentration in Ethics and Political Philosophy. I’m the head coach of a competitive high school debate team and teach the liberal arts at a classical school. I’m also a professional creative writer and journalist.
I love helping students of all ages understand and interpret difficult subjects and learn how to crystallize their thoughts in writing and oral communication. I believe studying the written word is a wonderful way to facilitate this kind of growth and learning.
