This book contains a delightful assortment of assignment ideas.
I have been truly inspired by the Holy Spirit of New Media. In fact, I plan on imposing the “materialities of seeing” on my peers and fellow instructors by subjecting them to the exercise “eye-witnessing” as described on page 24. Whether my 8010 peers approve or not, they can expect me to interrupt their classrooms when I run in and shout, “Where’s Kim? Have you seen Kim?” and run off as quickly as I appeared. Or maybe I’ll just bang on the windows and shout, “Hey, you! Don’t you look at me, you puzzle-wit!”
I thought about dressing up in a garish costume (my ideas includes a long mustache, a cane, and my Italian straw boater’s hat, etc.), but then I thought it would better test the notion of “eye-witnessing” if I appeared as inconspicuous and everyday as possible.
And I don’t intend on letting you know when I plan on running into your classroom. I can’t trust you to “act” nonplussed. You’re reaction must be as genuine as your students.
Oh yes! Be prepared, my 8010 peers. Like it or not, I am coming to your classroom this fall.
“Where’s Kim? Have you seen Kim!?”
Ahem. Since you missed a week, I think you should give us a stronger post than a focus on the text’s silliest assignment.
I thought that assignment was kind of cool. Please, Eric, please run into my class.
