ONCE YOU ARE SIGNED IN YOU WILL CLICK ON THE COURSE THAT SAYS 202106-OLD-AS-3742-N41: Myths & Images in Film. THEN CLICK ON THE "COURSE UNITS" LINK ON THE LEFT HAND DROP DOWN MENU. THEN CLICK WEEK 1. READ "O'Sullivan john manifest destiny" THEN READ "Manifest-Destiny-and-U.S-Westward-Expansion" THEN WRITE A 3 PAGE (840) WORD JOURNAL ENTRY ABOUT THE READINGS. The content is pretty open. I simply ask you to show me evidence of your thinking about the READINGS. It may build on class discussions or develop a new topic. One way to approach this is to use the journal to work out your understanding of the particular level we are currently focused on. What should an entry look like: Feel free to write in the first person. Your journal response might include your general reactions to the class materials, questions you have about it, your reactions to topics from class discussions, or revisions to your earlier thinking after having the benefit of additional time for reflection. Possible specific approaches include: looking at a passage, section, or even single sentence from the READINGS  that puzzles, moves, or upsets you; considering the significance of what we watched; comparing THE READINGS to each other. I also encourage you to connect the course material to your own life experience. It’s ok to think about how you felt reading a particular text or whether you enjoyed it or not. Just make sure always then to ask yourself, why? What is important is why you found a particular text appealing or unappealing, why you had a particular emotional reaction, why you agreed or disagreed with particular aspects of THE READINGS
