Welcome to lesson two. This week, we begin our foray into short-form science fiction with two texts that play with time and perception: John Cheever’s “The Swimmer” and Chris Marker’s “La Jetée.”<br />
<br />
We will also continue our work on Wikipedia by learning how to communicate with your colleagues and continuing to add to your journals.<br />
<br />
==Reply==<br />
Let’s begin where we left off in lesson one with Wikipedia. First, read this brief [[w:Help:Introduction to talk pages/1|introduction to talk pages]]<ref>Several similar pages exist on Wikipedia, like [[w:Help:Talk pages|Talk Page Help]] or this [[w:Wikipedia:Tutorial/Talk pages|talk page tutorial]]. You could also do a Google search for more, if necessary.</ref> and about [[w:Help:Talk pages#NOtification|sending notifications]].<ref>You might also have a look at the various ways to use [[w:Template:Reply to|<code><nowiki>{{Reply to}}</nowiki></code>]]</ref> — which will be a common practice in our use of Wikipedia. You might bookmark these pages for reference.<br />
<br />
Next, see the look at a couple of your classmates’ journal posts from lesson one; you may find them listed under the [[Science Fiction, Fall 2019/R2 Journal#Student Journals|R2 tab]] above or off [[w:User talk:Grlucas#Science Fiction Student Journals, Fall 2019|my talk page]]. You task here is to comment on, or reply to, the '''second post''' of '''two''' of your classmates’ journals using proper talk page conventions (including indentations and notifications).<br />
<br />
How do we reply? Well, have a look at “[[Reply, Respond, Comment]]” for some general guidelines. In essence, you want to be positive, thoughtful, ''and'' critical. What did they miss? What might they consider further? What did you find in your research that could help in their understanding? The goal here is twofold:<br />
# to build a sense of community through participation and <br />
# to help each other construct real knowledge.<ref>I could also add: it helps us practice our talk page discussion conventions.</ref><br />
<br />
Overly superlative and laudatory comments are not helpful, though they might make us feel good. You can be positive without saying “yeah, I agree 100%” or “this post is perfect” or something similar. <br />
<br />
{{notice|While it is technically true that our journals are not talk pages, we should use talk page conventions anytime we we post comments and replies.}}<br />
<br />
When you have written your reply, be sure you preview, correct any coding or writing mistakes, [[w:Wikipedia:Signatures|sign your comment]], and save. These steps are crucial, including signing your posts. If you do not sign, any notifications you attempted will not work and you will not receive credit for your comment. Any sloppiness in writing, including typos, makes your classmate’s journal look bad. Try to be conscientious and careful whenever adding comments — or editing ''any'' Wikipedia page for that matter. <br />
<br />
{{tip|title=Tip|I have tried to make these directions as clear as possible. However, you can always get additional assistance on the [[w:User talk:Grlucas/Help|class help page]]. That said, be patient, read carefully, and do not get frustrated. Just keep trying.}}<br />
<br />
==Read and View==<br />
Read “The Swimmer” and watch “Ja Jetée” taking notes as you do. Note character names, dominant themes, motifs, symbols, and important passages. Where do these important aspects of the text appear? After a first read, try to find at least '''one secondary text''' that addresses these texts on the Internet or in [http://ezproxy.mga.edu/login?url=http://www.galileo.usg.edu/scholar/mgsc/search/ Galileo].<ref>Obviously, the latter is better.</ref> Read the criticism and take notes.<br />
<br />
==Journal Post 3===<br />
{{notice|Resources to review for journal posts: “[[Writing in the Liberal Arts]]”; “[[Writing Top Ten]]”; “[[Editor's Checklist|Editor’s Checklist]]”; [[w:WP:INTREF|Adding a reference]].}}<br />
<br />
Write your post on any aspect of Cheever’s “The Swimmer” or Marker’s “La Jetée” that you’d like. Focus on one text for this entry; you will have the opportunity to write about both for your next entry. Try to focus: have a thesis statement and use a paragraph for each idea. While you needn’t focus on this, you might consider whether the story is even science fiction in a sense that you understand it. What might be the science fictional elements of the story?<br />
<br />
Use these specific details, including correct citations, as you write about Cheever. Cite sources (including the Cheever) correctly using [[w:Help:Introduction to referencing with Wiki Markup/1|footnoted references]], and [[w:Help:Introduction to editing with Wiki Markup/3|link to Wikipedia entries]] in the text of your post.<ref>External sources are ''always'' [[w:Help:Referencing for beginners|footnoted as references]]; Wikipedia entries are ''always'' just linked in the text. '''Never''' cite a Wikipedia article like you would an external source.</ref> You should have a couple of both.<br />
<br />
Remember, you must '''support your ideas with evidence'''. This [[Research & Response|practice]] is paramount in the [[The Liberal Arts Education|liberal arts]] and on [[w:Wikipedia:Verifiability|Wikipedia]]. Remember Hitchens’ Razor:<br />
<br />
{{cquote|That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.|author=Christopher Hitchens<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/fighting_words/2003/10/mommie_dearest.html|title=Mommie Dearest|first=Christopher|last=Hitchens|work=Slate|date=October 20, 2003|accessdate=2016-04-24}}</ref>}}<br />
<br />
While your ideas are important and should be the primary focus of your journal, any assertions you make need the support of a secondary source. Begin practicing that now and in all your writing. Journal posts without support will never receive a grade higher than a C.<br />
<br />
==Journal Post 4==<br />
Compare any aspect — character, theme, symbol — of the two texts. How do they complement each other? What does one say about the other? You goal here is to find connections between the two texts. Again, be sure to support your ideas with at least one source, cited correctly.<br />
<br />
==Reply, Too==<br />
Reply to at least two different colleagues’ posts.<br />
<br />
==Due Date==<br />
Please have all of the above completed by Sunday, '''September 8, 2019'''. I will evaluate your this lesson the following day, email everyone a progress report, and post audio feedback at the top of the next lesson if necessary.<br />
