Well, Poetry in Society was not a simple course. However, it was more interesting than I thought it would be. Each week had a different era: Medieval and 16th century for week 1, 17th and 18th centuries for week 2, 19th century for week 3, early 20th century for week 4, and late 20th century for week 5.
At the end of the course, I had to write a private message to the instructor because an assignment by a team member was incorrectly submitted. The team member submitted the wrong (incomplete) file. Fortunately, the grade had not been posted and she adjusted the grade. The instructor can refer back to the postings within the team to find that the completed version was indeed completed before the deadline, which the posts are date and time stamped. In the return e-mail from the instructor, she said that I was a pleasure to have in the class and that my interpretations of the poems were unique. She could not wait to see what I wrote next. What a compliment considering I am not overly familiar with nor am I comfortable with poetry.
The grades have been posted and I received another A! The actual percentage for the final grade: 94%!
This week, I have started Applied Linguistics. I am not sure how I feel about this course yet. So far, the reading is dull, but that may be because it is the beginning of the course and information has to be initiated.
Lately, I have also been thinking about having another article published, but I am not sure where I want to go with the article or what magazine to contact. Although still up in the air about that, I am going to start contacting a few and see who replies. Updates for that decision will be in the future.
