ZINE FEST 2015! Projects are shared in class poster session-style on Tuesday 17 November

===
AS YOU COME IN, PICK UP A NUMBERED LABEL FROM A TA, FILL IT OUT, AND FIND A ZINE STATION IN THIS ORDER: TAs will be directing you:

I. first fill in the rows at the front of the classroom [1 light blue in chart 3; ORANGE in chart 2 ]
II. when those are full, next fill in seats on the edge of aisles [ 2 & 3 in blue on chart 3 ]
III. if needed, you can fill in seats on the opposite edge of aisles [ red on chart 3 ]

Ia. COME IN AND SET UP: 10 mins

Ib. WALK AROUND SILENTLY EXAMING EVERYONE'S STATIONS AND TAKING NOTES TO ADD TO THROUGH THE FESTIVAL: 25 mins 

II. HALF CLASS STANDS NEXT TO STATIONS (every other station), WHILE OTHER HALF WALKS AROUND AND INTERACTS WITH THEM: 25 mins

III. OTHER HALF DOES THE SAME THING: 25 mins 

===

We want to be able to move freely around the stations as much as possible. You won't be sitting down much, but rather either moving around and looking or standing beside your own station.

Put the stuff you don't need for station in seats we won't be using.

=for the first third of class time, EVERYONE in the class will create small displays of their work all around our room. Silently we will all walk around among these displays, taking notes on how they address intersectionality and what we learn that we did not know from seeing them. 

=then we will divide into two groups, one half of our large class will stand by their displays, 
talking to their presenters about their work individually and in little groups, interacting with them all at the same time. Katie and your TAs will also wander around, learning about your work and offering insights. 

=Who displays and who walks around will switch in the final third of class time, continuing to talk to presenters, and sharing one's own thinking about how and why you did your project the way you did.

=During section next week, you will create a discussion about what we have noticed about each others’ projects and what we have learned from sharing our thinking and action and art activisms! 

You cannot get full credit for this assignment until after you present your work in this poster session-style event and discuss it in section. In other words, just a project object does not in itself complete the assignment, reflection and writing as well as displaying yours and interacting with others is similarly important. If an emergency or illness kept you from participation either day, to get full credit you will have to meet with three other students to share your work and their work outside class, and write up the experience and what you learned from it to complete the participation portion of that grade.

WE DON'T MEET NEXT TUESDAY 24 NOVEMBER BUT YOU SHOULD TAKE THIS TIME AS A WORK DAY TO BEGIN YOUR LEARNING ANALYSIS!! 

>>>EXPERIENCE SET FOUR: FEMINISM IS FOR EVERYBODY 

Tuesday, 24 November – THANKGIVING WEEK WORK AT HOME DAY: NO CLASS BUT….
 Finish up the materials you chose concerning Octavia Butler & Octavia's Brood: be ready to discuss!
• Finish up the materials you chose concerning Alison Bechdel: be ready to share with others!
What have you learned in class you might want to share with friends and family this week? What would you choose and how would you connect with all these concerns? Ask friends and family about their experiences in social movements, or their values for social change. Be open to listen and to talk with sensitivity, heart, integrity.

Tuesday, 1 December – Visions for Justice 
• Look over any stuff in Reed, Perez, Freeland you haven’t gotten to yet 
• If possible finish up your book 5 or at least read an additional chapter. 
• Consider all the readings for the class: make sure you have completed them all.
What are all these books about now you’ve worked with both and done projects that tie you into the insights they want to share with us? How do they each speak to the idea that feminism is for everybody? What feminist worlds do they open? Which aspects of Women’s Studies do you glimpse from these? How do they offer versions of intersectionality, feminist identities, visions of social justice?

Tuesday, 8 December – Sharing Feminisms – LAST DAY! 
• DUE ASS. #4: Final redrafted and edited version of your Learning Analysis: hardcopy in class; electronic copies to TA.
Our class will share learning analyses today in class. You must be present to get credit for this assignment!
