Memoir Rubric Link

Here is a link to the memoir rubric:

Memoir Rubric

Memo Assignment

Post a memo to me (on your blog) about how you are going to implement the feedback from the peer review. Where are you going to go from here, and what are you going to do with this feedback? This memo should be at least 300-500 words (about 2-3 well-developed paragraphs) and should deal with not only revising this paragraph, but with finishing the memoir in a way that incorporates strong visuals and insightful significance (see your memoir assignment and rubric for specific assignment criteria). This should be in memo format, written in academic tone, and should be done no later than Thursday, September 17, 2009 at midnight.

Keep in mind that this is due at the same time as your draft of the memoir (see your assignment sheet) but that I am giving you class time to work on it.

ENC 1101 Section 119

Welcome to the blog for ENC 1101 Section 119! This blog will be the main stomping grounds for you to link your separate Memoir blogs to, and a way for us to organize ourselves around a central theme. For now, remember the main ideas for your memoir:
  • The event should have been long enough ago so that you have sufficient perspective on it
  • The event should have been something that was important to you as a child, but that still resonates with you today as an adult.
  • The event should be something that your audience can relate to.
