Blogging Prompt #3: The Experience and Other Evidence Memo

Memo on Three Potential Topics

For this week's blog, please write up an overview of THREE potential topics for your Experience and Other Evidence Paper. You are far more likely to pick a good topic in the end if you have a range of topics to choose from; therefore, you must write about three different topics or you will not get credit for this memo assignment. 

For each of the three topics, write a separate paragraph explaining what topic you have chosen. First, describe your personal experience that relates to the topic.  Then come up with at least one question that could be asked about your topic; remember that the easiest way to do this is to think of some assumption that your personal experience might be able to challenge. Finally, think of at least one academic audience that might be interested in this question. For example, would students taking a particular course have a reason to be interested in the question that relates to your topic?

Due by 9pm on the Monday on your individual blogs.

Commenting on your groupmates' blogs is optional this week, though do feel free to do so! Collaboration and input almost always results in a better final product, so let your classmates know what you think of their ideas.
