1xbet online casino Description
Many people look to Jane Austen for inspiration, drawing upon her characters, her narrative style, and her themes as they create their own art. Our investigation of Austen's legacy 1xbet online casino begin by familiarizing ourselves with her novels (by way of Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and Mansfield Park) and the critical reception of her novels since publication. We 1xbet online casino then consider how Austen's work has inspired others across a range of genres and decades, both to create other novels and to adapt her work for film, television, and online distribution. We'll conclude by looking into the fan response to Austen work (the trend of "Austenmania"), both in print and online, and Austen's iconic role in popular culture. Throughout, our goal 1xbet online casino be to discover Austen's contribution to literary and cultural history and to understand why her writing endures.


1xbet online casino Objectives: ENGL 698 "Capstone" is a writing- and 1xbet online casino -intensive course which provides a culminating experience for the English major. Towards that larger goal, the course objectives parallel the program outcomes for English as follows:

Readings and 1xbet online casino Participation: Given the course objectives and learning outcomes stated above, this class will foreground discussion. Class participation is therefore expected and will count for 20% of 1xbet online casino final grade. This portion of 1xbet online casino grade includes 1xbet online casino contributions to our discussions in class (in large and small groups) and to our discussions on the online message board (further information below). To participate, you must complete the reading assigned for each class session, think carefully about what you have read, and be ready to share 1xbet online casino ideas. Excessive absences from our weekly meeting (three or more) may result in failure of the course.

1xbet online casino : 1xbet online casino attendance is important, but I recognize that the unexpected will happen. Therefore, you will not be penalized for 1xbet online casino first absence. However, subsequent absences will lower 1xbet online casino final course grade; excessive absences (three or more) or excessive lateness/early departure may result in failure of the course. While I appreciate 1xbet online casino offering explanations for 1xbet online casino absence, the only way to excuse an absence is to provide me with an official letter from 1xbet online casino dean or advisor or an official notice of illness from the Health Center or 1xbet online casino doctor. If you are absent, it is 1xbet online casino responsibility to find out from another class member any announcements or assignments.

Leading 1xbet online casino Discussion: As part of the class participation grade, students will sign up in pairs to initiate discussion for one of our class sessions. Questions for class discussion (4-5 in number) should highlight issues or themes or queries 1xbet online casino think we should address in our class discussion of the assigned texts for that day. After conferring about and drafting the questions, the pair leading discussion should email me their questions by 7 p.m. the night before; I will confirm receipt and offer any suggestions for the order or focus of the questions.

1xbet online casino Message Board: To offer another venue for discussion, we'll be using an online message board in K-State Online. Each week, each student is required to post at least one paragraph-length comment about the materials we're reading and discussing in class. I will read these discussions and assess a grade (at the end of the semester) based on the thoughtfulness of 1xbet online casino comments, their ability to foster discussion among 1xbet online casino classmates, and their responsiveness both to our readings and to 1xbet online casino classmates’ comments in class and on the board. I'll provide some weekly question prompts as I follow these conversations, and I may also participate, but I see the message board primarily as a way for you to raise issues we haven’t addressed – or addressed fully or to 1xbet online casino satisfaction – during our regular class meetings. The work contributed to the message board can become source material for more formal writing assignments.

The weekly message board will run from Friday to Friday, to encourage you to post right after as well as before our weekly class discussions, but I encourage you to contribute 1xbet online casino ideas throughout the week and to check the board for others' postings. 1xbet online casino postings do not need to be long, but they do need to be substantive: they must be long enough to convey clearly the problem you are taking up and 1xbet online casino point of view, connecting 1xbet online casino comment to others' comments whenever possible. I will offer models of successful comments early in the semester.

To post to the 1xbet online casino , follow these directions:

1. Go to my homepage at http://www.ksu.edu/english/westmank/ and click on our course (ENGL 698), and then “Message Board” to login to K-State Online and go directly to the “Message Board.” (1xbet online casino may also login to the K-State Online course page for ENGL 698, click on “Collaboration” and then select “Message Board.”)
2. 1xbet online casino should see all the messages posted to date and the newest threads ones first.
3. To post, choose to “reply,” so you can engage directly in the conversation and 1xbet online casino message can “thread” beneath the one you’re responding to. Please change the subject line so it reflects the content of 1xbet online casino message.


Critical 1xbet online casino : You will write one shorter paper (4 pages in length); you will also write one longer paper (7-8 pages in length) which will place 1xbet online casino ideas in conversation with others who have published on 1xbet online casino topic. This longer paper will have a second life in an edited form, too, as a publication for the web, so we can share with others our discoveries about Austen's legacy. You will have a choice of topic for Paper #1, and you will have a choice of topic and texts for Paper #2, including a creative option. All three papers should follow the general rules of composition and be typed or word-processed with standard double-spacing, 1-inch margins, and either 11- or 12-point typeface. Title pages and cover sheets are unnecessary. Pages should be numbered, stapled together, and spell-checked. Papers are due by the date and time on the syllabus; late papers will be penalized one grade (i.e.: A to B) for each day late. (Note: The University's Honor Code obliges you to cite the source of any idea that is not 1xbet online casino own. Otherwise, you have plagiarized. If you do plagiarize, you will fail this course.)

You will also write four response papers (2 pages in length) in response to our readings. Response papers are designed to ready you for class discussion and to explore ideas you could develop further in 1xbet online casino longer paper. In 1xbet online casino response paper, you should not repeat previous class discussions or provide a summary of the reading. Instead, 1xbet online casino response should begin to analyze the primary and secondary reading assigned for that class session, selecting an issue or theme or question you feel to be significant. I recommend that you select a word, phrase, or short quotation from the reading to initiate 1xbet online casino response. (See sample response distributed in class.)

Everyone 1xbet online casino write a response paper for our second reading assignment (Austen's Emma) and for our seventh 1xbet online casino assignment (the conclusion of Middlemarch); for the remaining two response papers, 1xbet online casino may choose from the other texts on the syllabus, being sure to choose one novel and one film. Response papers are due at the start of class on the day we begin our discussion of the reading. Responses will be graded on a 1-5 scale: 5=A, 4=B, 3=C, 2=D, 1=F. I do not accept late response papers.

Multi-Media Project: You will choose one of four possible multi-media projects to complete during the semester. 1xbet online casino multi-media project can be submitted on any class day but must be turned in no later than Tuesday April 28. Each project should demonstrate insight and understanding of the text with which it connects, should be thoughtfully constructed, and should be presented professionally with attention to detail. Refer to the grading rubrics (posted in K-State Online as of 1/25) for detailed grading criteria. The assignment will be distributed the second week of class, but here are brief descriptions:
Examination: 1xbet online casino will have a cumulative final exam.


1xbet online casino and video resources: Along with some required viewing (see the films listed under “Required Texts”) and required online reading, I will refer 1xbet online casino to resources available online or on video to complement our readings and discussions. Links within the online “Schedule of Classes” will take 1xbet online casino to related online resources. I will add and update these resources as the semester progresses; if 1xbet online casino locate a site or page which 1xbet online casino find valuable, please let me know, and I'll consider adding it to the existing links.
Email: I highly recommend email as a way of touching base with me about 1xbet online casino work for the class -- a kind of virtual office hours. You can send me queries about reading or writing assignments, 1xbet online casino thesis statement for an essay, or anything else that could be handled with a quick exchange of messages. I check my email throughout the day, but please remember that I am not perpetually online.


Conferences: I want you to succeed in this course, and I am happy to meet with you about 1xbet online casino work and 1xbet online casino progress. I encourage you to see me before exams or papers are due, or if you have questions about material we discuss in class. Please feel free to stop by during office hours (M, W 9:00-10:00 a.m.), or contact me by phone or email to arrange a more convenient time to meet.

Note: If 1xbet online casino have any condition such as a physical or learning disability that will make it difficult for 1xbet online casino to carry out the work as I have outlined it or which will require academic accommodations, please notify me in the first two days of the course. Any student with a disability who needs a classroom accommodation, access to technology, assistance during an emergency evacuation, or other assistance in this course should contact the Student Access Center (formerly Disability Support Services) and/or me. The SAC serves students with a wide range of disabilities including, but not limited to, physical disabilities, sensory impairments, learning disabilities, attention deficit disorder, depression, and anxiety.

1xbet online casino Honesty: Kansas State University has an Honor System based on personal integrity, which is presumed to be sufficient assurance that, in academic matters, one&1xbet online casino ;s work is performed honestly and without unauthorized assistance. Undergraduate and graduate students, by registration, acknowledge the jurisdiction of the Honor System. The policies and procedures of the Honor System apply to all full and part-time students enrolled in undergraduate and graduate courses on-campus, off-campus, and via distance learning. The honor system website can be reached <http://www.k-state.edu/1xbet online casino /. A component vital to the Honor System is the inclusion of the Honor Pledge which applies to all assignments, examinations, or other course work undertaken by students. The Honor Pledge is implied, whether or not it is stated: "On my honor, as a student, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this academic work." If you have any questions about 1xbet online casino work in relation to the Honor System, please ask.

Expectations for 1xbet online casino Conduct: All student activities in the University, including this course, are governed by the Student Judicial Conduct Code as outlined in the Student Governing Association By Laws, Article VI, Section 3, number 2. Students who engage in behavior that disrupts the learning environment may be asked to leave the 1xbet online casino .

Grading:
The shorter paper (Paper #1) will count for 10%, the longer paper (Paper #2) will count for 20%, and the web version of Paper #2 will count for 10%. Response papers will count for 15% of 1xbet online casino final grade; the multi-media project will count for 10% of 1xbet online casino final grade. Class participation (20%) and a final exam (15%) complete the requirements.
