Make Cycles
Our course is organized by two week “make cycles,” a term I borrow from Connected Learning. We’ll spend two weeks in each make cycle focused on an aspect of literacy studies. Each of these make cycles follow routines for our work together: discovering, reading, writing, and making.
I’ll release the full descriptions for assignments and activities every two weeks. You can find the full descriptions linked here once they’re released and in a drop down menu from the Make Cycle page tab above.
