RWS 305W Online Journaling: An Exercise in Revision and Reflection
This summer we have been journaling twice weekly to push our thinking, explore ourselves and our
minds, and make sense of the world around us. In class this term, we have approached various genres in
order to understand how “real” world writers write and discern common elements across multiple
models of any given text type – letters, profiles, resumes, blogs. Often as writers, we struggle to take our
best ideas, our most instinctual writing and make it public.
For this assignment, I want you to select one journal entry and make it “audience ready” by crafting it into
a new piece of writing that conforms to the genre of your choice. Your journal entry as it stands now is a
starting place, not an end product. It is your job in this assignment to take an idea, issue, prompt or
response you like from your journal and transform it into something with a larger meaning an audience
will understand.
This field is wide open! You can write for any genre you choose from the list here, or seek approval for an
alternate style not listed.
o
Profile, photo essay, memoir, manifesto, speech, satire, obituary, news article, advertisement,
infographic, a dictionary or encyclopedia entry, character analysis, how-to column, editorial
argument, a “This I Believe” statement, letter (any kind – letter to editor, friend, organization), you
can even “rewrite” a Kellner prompt and make it your own.
o
Creative text like a one act play, poem, short story, comic strip, a myth, fairy tale, song lyrics
o
You may choose a more abbreviated or electronic medium to make your statement such as an
Instagram post, a Facebook status update, web page, blog, a very creative and thoughtful Tweet or
other approved format – but you must also provide proof of publication if you select this shorter
format including a screen shot and public link.
Tips:
Formatting should be dictated by the genre you choose (and you will likely have to investigate and
research the “rules” of a new genre); you can pick from any prompt in the Hank Kellner’s Write What You
See folder or from your own responses, even if they were “off-prompt”; 25% of your grade on this
assignment is the reflection. The grading criterion revolves around the success, form, impact and
creativity of your writing in the genre you select.
Journal Revision is due Sunday, July 7, 11:59 pm via the Turnitin link under Module 4.
