Assignments Overview

I think what I'm going to enjoy most from this class will definitely be the reading. Because of my interest in both the classical Greek/Roman and Biblical units, I'm excited to dive into some of those texts. I've also never really been a creative guy when it comes to this sort of storytelling (I focus a little more on telling stories about sports), but maybe going through readings from various mythologies will inspire me when I put together my storybook.
I also thought there were several extra credit assignments that were interesting. I've never actually done a Wikipedia Trail on purpose, so I might try that just to see where I end up. I've also made a habit recently of looking back on how my days or weeks go, so I might have to write a few Famous Last Words posts throughout the semester.
I've definitely never had a class like this in terms of the emphasis on the blogs. While I've had classes that demanded a lot of writing, it was usually in the form of research papers or exams. I think it's an interesting concept that allows for a lot of communication between classmates, especially for an online class like this, but it will be a challenge trying to stay on top of all the blog posts.

How fast I'm going to have to type to make all these blog posts...
