| Inhalt | The title of the course says what this course is about: writing 111 words a day throughout the semester. Every day, all the participants will choose a topic (usually academic, but cultural, political, or social as well) and write 111 words in English about that topic - no more, no less, exactly 111 words. Each day's text should make a specific claim about that day's topic. Students can choose their topics from any university course they are taking (or have taken), as well as from cultural, political, or social issues that come up during the semester. The daily texts will be posted to ADAM for the instructor and the participants to read. Class time will involve discussions of selected texts by the participants. This course is an experiment. The instructor and the participants will work together to decide what to do with the texts and how to discuss them. The only thing that is set in stone is the project: 111 words a day, from the first day of class to the last. Why 111 words? It was going to be 100 words a day, because one of the instructor's intentions is to have students work on concision and precision - but 111 is a much cooler number: eine Schnapszahl, for one, and charmingly arbitrary, for another. |
| Lernziele | To work on writing every day. |
| Literatur | There is no reading list for the course. The instructor and the participants will read what the participants themselves write for the course. |
