PWR 2EE: Writing & Rhetoric 2: Once Upon a Cause: Producing Picture Books for Local Children
Prerequisite:
PWR 1. Whether our favorite picture books as kids were timeless classics or new arrivals, whether they scared us or amused us, consoled us or challenged us, they moved and shaped us in profound ways. How could a few dozen pages and a few hundred words affect us so powerfully? Why did we want to hear and see and read our favorite picture books again and again? What was the secret to their magic? In this course you'll not only analyze that "magic" but will also collaborate closely with a group of classmates to create an original, compelling, and educationally appropriate picture book for second-graders.

PWR 2EI: Writing & Rhetoric 2: Rhetorics of Copying, Memeing, Modding and Piracy
PWR 2 courses focus on developing strategies for presenting research-based arguments in both written and oral/multimedia genres. This class takes as its theme traditions, practices, and artifacts that call the premises of originality into question and that playfully unsettle the state and corporate narratives of cultural ownership that sustain them.

PWR 2GAW: Writing & Rhetoric 2: 'Don't Stand so Close to Me' : Cross-cultural Communication
Prerequisite:
PWR 1. Despite universal attributes such as facial expressions and emotions, humans also have culturally based assumptions, values, and beliefs - from the shared assumptions and collectivist views of high-context cultures to the explicit and highly articulated rhetoric of more individualistic and low-context groups. Our course will explore rhetorical challenges in verbal and nonverbal communication across cultures. We'll consider not only language and argument but also proxemics - determined spatial distance between people - as well as eye contact and gestures. For more information about
