| Archetype Story | ||||||||||||||||||||
| I personally enjoyed writing the archetype story. It provided an excellent experience for me to just write anything (within limits) I wanted. Of course, being the kind of person I am, I wrote another completely random tale of badgers, snakes and asbestos. However, my conventions could use some work, along with just about everything else. Ultimately however, my grade was 17/30 (because of a dreaded "see me"), a less than desirable 57%. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Archetype Essay | ||||||||||||||||||||
| I did not enjoy writing the essay even half as much as writing the story simply because it was not as interesting or easy to do. Even so, I really liked some of the aspects of the essay better than those of the story. In the essay, I was able to establish several ideas fairly easily and the title was 100 times better than that of the story. Again, the grade was pretty terrible 18/30 (because of a "see me"). | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Sindbad Archetype Analysis | ||||||||||||||||||||
| This assignment taught me a lot of how to analyze for archetypes. Even though it was an extremely simple assignment, I was able to analyze the text for archetypes. Personally, I enjoyed doing this assignment because it was fairly interesting to read about Sindbad's journeys and look for anything that seemed fairly constant. Of course, I would like to erase the fact that it was another assignment I really did not pay attention to. I recieved a 5/5 for this assignment, which I am happy about. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Odyssey Essay | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Grade pending (due to yet another dreaded "See Me") But I finally understand what author purpose and an argumentative thesis is now... | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Odyssey Alternate Ending Poem | ||||||||||||||||||||
| I found this assignment to be fairly simple, yet fun. It allowed me to write a fanfiction of what I believed Odysseus would do once he was forced to stay inside his palace for three years. I was able to express what I would expect Odysseus to do in my own way. There is no grade for this apparently, but I still like it. | ||||||||||||||||||||
