Analysis, Take 1

Daily Update
What a class today! After the quiz, we spent our time together discussing the reading from chapter 6 of Literature for Composition then doing some "applied analysis" to a cultural "text" you're all familiar with: the iPhone. If any of you are puzzled why I spent so much time breaking down the cultural significance of Apple versus the PC, then don't worry: we'll be doing similar "applied analysis" to some literary texts on Monday, so hopefully the connections between how analysis happens will start to make sense, regardless of the "text" we look at.

Homework Reminder
On Monday you'll submit your revised first draft to me for review. I'll read this draft, comment on it, then return it to you for another revision. The final draft is due on Monday, February 21.
