Hooray! This is the final writing assignment of the semester. Congratulations! You're almost there.
Some students asked for clarification about this final essay. Here goes.
The essay should be single-spaced (1-2 pages) and can integrate visual images from the two stories. This is not required, but it is an option open to you.
Likewise, secondary sources aren't required, but you are free to use them.
In your essay, write about your experiences reading one or both of these wordless stories. What are the advantages of "reading" a story made purely of images? Are there disadvantages? Does a wordless text place more responsibility on the reader? Less? Do you think our culture is moving toward wordless communication? Emojis for example. Is this a beneficial thing? The questions above are not a laundry list to be answered in order. Instead, they serve as a guide to related questions and issues. Follow your own path as long as it's related in some way to the spirit of the questions above.
Lovingly and carefully revise and edit your essay before uploading it.
This is due no later than 3:30 pm on Thursday, December 7.
