Blog one post discussing your reaction to Project 3. What do you think of this assignment? Secondly, what is Shipka’s idea about a composition “made whole?” What does she mean by that? How do you think this assignment draws from Shipka’s theory of rhetoric and composition?
I am really excited to start working and producing project 3. I like to express who I am through images and places. I cannot wait to start working on this project because it’s something I know I’ll really enjoy doing. I think this is my favorite project we’ve done so far. Shipka’s idea about a composition “made whole” is to have students expand on the normality of producing work. She talked about one of her students writing her essay on ballet slippers, this is what she means by composition made whole. It not only talks about ballet through the essay, but it is shown through physically seeing the essay written on ballet slippers. This takes the discipline and subject to bring everything together as a whole. You’re not just thinking of ballet you’re seeing every aspect of it so that you have the whole image of ballet itself. Shipka likes to show her work by being different and thinking outside of the box and by viewing every aspect of the subject.
