Little Brother for Week Five

Welcome to Week Five, a busy week.  This week you read Little

Brother, complete a midterm examination, contribute to a discussion thread, and take a quiz.

The video for the week might mention works from a previous manifestation of the class. I replaced, remember, the first four novels:  The Hunger Games Trilogy and Carbon Diaries.  

You will take the midterm examination between July 2, and midnight Saturday, 8 July. 

For a discussion of the examination, see the Announcement for Week Four and the blog page for that week. You will find as well plenty of samples, links, and other items of interest in the Assignment Folder.

The links for the quiz and the discussion thread will remain open until midnight Monday, July 9.

Introduction to Little Brother, a novel about which you will find a lot of information on the internet to use in your discussions:

Quiz for Little Brother:

I include here two links--Part One and Part Two--for a discussion of  Feed, a novel you can use for your essay; if you decide to read this novel, you will find this vocabulary helpful.  

In addition to responding to the discussion threads, you will take a quiz, completing both assignments by Monday at midnight.
