Week 7 Reading Notes Part A: Laos

I had trouble picking a story to read this week. I ended up picking Laos. The stories were interesting, but not as much as other weeks. I had trouble staying interested. I think I could do something with the "The Spirit - Guarded Cave." I like that the spirits were loyal the owners of the treasure even after they all passed away. This story would be easy to recreate. 

I also liked "The Parrot and the Minor Bird." It would be easy to turn this into a horror story. The men were threatened by the sao bird because there was a chance that it could be smarter than them. It is explained that the parrot and minor bird only echo the words of man because of it. 

The Giants' Mountain and the Temple would also be a good choice.

All the Assignments...

I am intrigued by the stories we get to write about. I love reading stories from different parts of the world. I am very excited for the extra credit and I know making time for the extra credit is difficult, but worth it. I love when a professor takes the time to set up their class in such a unique way. It really shows that they love what they do and I cannot be more appreciative. I am ready to give this class my full attention. Too Tired to Function

Week 8 Comments and Feedback

I think that the feedback could be more constructive. I find that the comments that let me know if there is confusion or anything in the story help me the most. I believe that I am helping when it comes to grammar, but the content aspect could use improvement. I realize just how immense the possibilities can be when it comes to writing our weekly stories. I do not feel like I am getting to know people because I usually do not connect with people over the internet. I have to see and talk to people physically in order to feel like I have any sense of who they are. I am happy with my introduction post. I believe that I could look up more feedback strategies in order to benefit others and myself. I chose this particular graphic because it clearly states the adjectives that should describe your feedback style. It is concise and I like the colors. I think that it helps more than the others because it does not have as much writing. 21 Components of Effective Feedback
