A Mid-term Friday Gift
Coldplay
Parachutes
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you, And everything you do, Yeah, they were all yellow. I came along, I wrote a song for you, And all the things you do, And it was called "Yellow." So then I took my turn, Oh what a thing to have done, And it was all "Yellow." Your skin, Oh yeah your skin and bones, Turn into something beautiful, You know, you know I love you so, You know I love you so. I swam across, I jumped across for you, Oh what a thing to do. Cos you were all "Yellow," I drew a line, I drew a line for you, Oh what a thing to do, And it was all "Yellow." Your skin, Oh yeah your skin and bones, Turn into something beautiful, And you know, For you I'd bleed myself dry, For you I'd bleed myself dry. It's true, Look how they shine for you, Look how they shine for you, Look how they shine for, Look how they shine for you, Look how they shine for you, Look how they shine. Look at the stars, Look how they shine for you, And all the things that you do. |

A Rush of Blood to the Head
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are I had to find you, tell you I need you Tell you I set you apart Tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions Oh let's go back to the start Running in circles, coming in tails Heads on a science apart Nobody said it was easy It's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be this hard Oh, take me back to the start. I was just guessing at numbers and figures Pulling the puzzles apart Questions of science, science and progress Do not speak as loud as my heart And tell me you love me, come back and haunt me Oh and I rush to the start Running in circles, chasing our tails Coming back as we are Nobody said it was easy Oh it's such a shame for us to part Nobody said it was easy No one ever said it would be so hard I'm going back to the start Ooooohhhhhhh [x4] |

Mid-term: Self-evaluation and reflection
Due before class October 12, 2012, as an attachment to an email:
Write a self-evaluation and reflection addressing the following (give specific evidence to all points made):
Discuss your engagement with the course so far (including your assigned texts, writing assignments, class participation). Also identify the quality of your work; please assign yourself a letter grade at the mid-term. Consider explaining how you have grown in the course so far (connect with what has prompted that growth), what you have learned from Style, and what you have learned from Dr. Thomas's class discussions/comments as well as feedback on your essay and in your conference(s). Please rate your experience with your two required texts (did you enjoy, did you learn from them, would you recommend their being assigned next FYW). Feel free to identify how the course has not supported your learning and growth, as well as what you would like to change for the second half of the course.
This self-evaluation and reflection may include any feedback you feel will enhance your success in the course and support better instruction from Dr. Thomas.
* Please identify the adaptation unit you have chosen to examine during the second half of the course.
