Kindly note: This is an ESL friendly class, CEFR level — C1, C2 (Advanced) Please feel free to write me via Outschool email with questions. *** ALL ESSAYS FOR THIS CLASS ARE PROVIDED FOR LEARNERS, POSTED ON THE CLASS PAGE EACH WEEK (NO BOOK PURCHASE NECESSARY) *** NEW ADDITION! LEARNERS CAN PRACTICE WRITING ASSERTION ESSAYS EACH WEEK WITH THE SPAR QUESTIONS FROM THE ORAL DEBATES IN CLASS. THE WRITING ASPECT OF THE CLASS IS PURELY OPTIONAL. IF LEARNERS CHOOSE TO COMPLETE A WRITTEN ESSAY I WILL PROVIDE A QUICK, NUANCED AND COMPLETE RESPONSE TO THEIR WORK. *** Now is the time to use the key skills of speech and debate in the classroom and the world! Our ongoing class will focus on blending the acknowledged technique of Spar debating with understanding literature through debate and discussion. Spar means “SPontaneous ARgumentation” a quicktime technique that is used to prepare students for formal debate. Our class will use Spar debating to explore the key points involving acknowledged masterworks of the essay with works from Annie Dillard, E.O. Wilson, Eudora Welty and more. The result? Students will learn to take a position on key issues involving intriguing literary questions, while gaining a nuanced and thorough understanding both sides of every issue. All students will gain an enhanced exploration of literature while expanding debate techniques. Spar Debate questions will focus on the literary aspect of each weekly essay and the Spar debates are evidence-based from the essays themselves. The 20 minute discussion at the beginning of each session, guided by me, will allow all students to engage in productive discussion. Guidance will be given as to the parameters of Spar debating which are evidence-based not guided by emotional responses. This class has been purposely limited to six students to maximize the participation of every learner. Prior to each weekly class the chosen essay will be posted along with the Spar debate questions for the week. Spar is quick debate! With debaters given the Pro or Con position, a short Spar debate can illuminate ideas and provide for more nuanced critical thinking. Each ongoing class will run as follows: 5 minutes of general introduction 20 minutes of interactive discussion on the chapter or pages set for the class 20 minutes of ongoing Spar pro/con debate involving key literary questions from the weekly reading 15 minutes of recap of the Spar discussions and the points raised by the students. **** How does Spar debating work? 10 MINUTE MINI DEBATES! Students face off to debate Pro/Con questions involving the specific reading from literature for the day. LEARNERS CHOOSE PRO/CON POSITION 2 minutes Students have 1 minutes to brainstorm ideas for their position (evidence/arguments) 1 minute Pro student gives a 1 minute opening statement to make their case (Con student listens quietly and takes notes) 1 minute Con student gives a 1 minute opening statement to make their case (Pro student listens quietly and take notes) 30 seconds Both students think! 2 to 3 minutes Mini crossfire discussion where both students can ask each other questions about opposing statements. 30 seconds Both students think again to prepare their closing statements 1 minute Con student gives a 1 minute closing statement (Pro students listens quietly) 1 minute Pro student gives a 1 minute closing statement (Con students listens quietly *** NOTE: THERE ARE TWENTY ESSAYS IN THE COMPLETE SERIES (COPIES OF ALL ESSAYS ARE PROVIDED FOR LEARNERS AND POSTED ON THE CLASS PAGE EACH WEEK) SECTIONS: Thursday, 6 am Eastern Section November 2, 2023--The Seam of the Snail by Cynthia Ozick November 9-- On Seeing England for the First Time by Jamaica Kincaid November 16, 2023-- No class for this date November 23, 2023 -- No class for this date .We will skip Thursday, November 23 for Thanksgiving November 30, 2023-- Why I Went to the Woods by Henry David Thoreau December 7, 2023 --A Woman’s Beauty: Put-Down or Power Source by Susan Sontag December 14--No class for this date December 21, 2023-- Clamorous to Learn by Eudora Welty January 4, 2024--On the Nature of Scientific Reasoning by Jacob Bronowski January 11, 2024--Living Like Weasels by Annie Dillard January 18, 2024 --On Dining Alone by MFK Fisher January 25, 2024--On the Pleasures of Hating by William Hazlitt February 1, 2024-- Crickets, Cats, Bats & Chaos by Lewis Thomas February 8, 2024--Souls on Ice by Mark Doty February 15, 2024--Naps by Barbara Holland February 22, 2024--The Death of the Moth by Virginia Woolf -- Arriving at Perfection by Benjamin Franklin --The Decay of Friendship by Samuel Johnson *** Thursday, 3 pm Eastern Section October 12, 2023--Cat People vs. Dog People by Laura Miller October 19, 2023--The Seam of the Snail by Cynthia Ozick October 26, 2023--On Seeing England for the First Time by Jamaica Kincaid November 2, 2023--Why I Went to the Woods by Henry David Thoreau November 9, 2023-- A Woman’s Beauty: Put-Down or Power Source by Susan Sontag November 16, 2023-Clamorous to Learn by Eudora Welty This section will skip Thursday, November 23 for Thanksgiving. - On the Nature of Scientific Reasoning by Jacob Bronowski - Once More to the Lake by E.B.

其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
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.
