Where We’ve Been & Where We’re Going

Taking Stock: or The Midterm Review

A mere week has gone by since we’ve seen each other, but it still feels like a long time since we’ve sat together in Davison 017. Today, we’ll review where we’ve been and look ahead to where we’re going. Your midterm is due in a week and a half, and I want to ensure that I’ve prepared you to succeed. I’ll hand out a hardcopy of this Midterm Review sheet to work on together in class.

We will also take some time to look at my draft of your final assignment, The Persuasion Project.

HOMEWORK

READ Chapter 8 “Extrinsic Proofs: Arguments Waiting to be Used” (Crowley and Hawhee 200-221)

NOTE: I mentioned last class that you’d have until today to make up any late blog posts. You’ll see in Blackboard that I’ve graded all material you’ve handed in. If you want to make anything up, you must do so BY TONIGHT, Mon 10/21. If you have questions or concerns, please email me at andrea.r.efthymiou@hofstra.edu. I’m happy to meet with you to discuss our assignments and your progress in the course.
