The next two meetings of our course will consist of a symposium in which you share your work toward the final paper with your colleagues and we begin, through these discussions, to draw conclusions together about the ideas we have been reading all along.
Each of you are expected to prepare material that takes between ten and twelve minutes to deliver. Your presentations are not to be matters of improvisation and having less than ten minutes of material to present will not be acceptable. The form your presentations take, however, is up to you. You can read a passage from a draft of your final paper in progress, you can offer us an abstract and outline of your overall argument, you can devote (some) of your time to asking questions or describing problems with which you are grappling.
Those who are not delivering presentations are expected to attend, take notes, and be prepared to raise issues and questions for your colleagues -- as well as discuss connections from your own work or from the course in general this term.
Each day of the symposium will consist of three panels with three participants each, and each panel will conclude with a discussion period. Those who choose to use AV as part of their presentations are expected to have it ready BEFORE their presentation begins -- we do not have time to waste while people fart around with slides, so get that squared away ahead of time please.
