Roll Fizzlebeef posted:Kind of a weird question for the OP, but; can you tell if someone has not done the reading for a certain piece based on grading their essays? I wonder this because I got an English Lit major from a 1300 student liberal arts college a year ago and got about a B average without reading about 1/2 of the assigned works. I never got called out on this, including never being called out by fellow students, even when I did my senior seminar project on a book I never read one page of.

Did you find that learning foreign languages helped your English writing skils? Verbal? If so, would you expect such results to be typical?

There's something to be said about attempted integration of entertainment and papers. Can you provide me with examples of student success and failure? It would likely help me work out my approach given that your perspective is that of my primary audience. This has all been a many year struggle against not knowing what other people find funny. I think my greatest 'hit' in recent years has been in a paper on The Metamorphosis; my first line mimicked the structure of the novella's first line. I think my worst failure is a self-referential paper on the process of writing a paper.* *I did not turn in this paper.
