I have recently learned that I will be teaching a senior seminar in the Spring 2010 semester, and I'm using this blog entry to think through an idea I have. If I get a little feedback, that would be excellent as well.

The senior seminar is an important capstone for the English Major experience. The seminar I took as an undergrad confirmed my desire to go to graduate school and pursue the career I now find myself in. So when I think about what would be valuable in a seminar now, I look back on that one and recognize the responsibility that I now have.

I need a topic and/or focus that meets as many of the following criteria as possible:

1. It is an interesting topic. A topic, that is, that I will enjoy learning about, and a topic that will attract motivated students to enroll.
