What We Will Explore Together in This Section of Stretch: 21 st Century Literacies for a Global Citizen "The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter."--Thomas Jefferson Jefferson extols the role that newspapers play in a functioning democracy: informing citizens is their first step to access the power needed to exercise the right to self-determination promised to all in a democracy. Increasingly democracy plays out on an international stage; increasingly the world turns toward democratic values and systems for protecting those values. And we are called on to be citizens in a global community. On this global stage there is much for millennials to do to secure their own rights and the rights of their international brethren—and there are global media tools available to do that work. Americans read the stories of daily lives in the pages of newspapers and journals, accessed through the internet. In doing so, they engage a narrative and dialogue of global dimension: The stories of the conflicts in the Middle East, of debates about immigration laws, of floods and fires and extreme storms, of ecological disasters and political triumphs. These are the stories of our neighbors and neighborhoods, of our fellow citizens and our country, of our global brothers and sisters and our global community.

Reflecting on Your Own Learning: The Stretch Course Learning Outcomes (CLO)

When you have completed this coursework, you will have made considerable progress in developing yourself as a reader and writer. At the end of the fall and the spring term, you will assemble this work in a portfolio, and reflect on the work to gauge and define your progress. Presenting this portfolio to me and to one other member of the Stretch Faculty Learning Community, you will demonstrate to us your own ability to:

Read to learn: • annotate a reading selection to develop a summary and response in

your writing (GELO 1); • identify audience & purpose in several genres (GELO 1, 3, 4); • explain how genres work to serve audience and context (GELO 1, 3).

Read to write: • identify rhetorical appeals and devise strategies for an effective

appeal to a specific audience (GELO 1, 3); • develop a text to appeal to a specific audience (GELO 1, 3); • identify choices a writer has made to produce a text (GELO 1, 3, 4); • use readings as models for your own writing strategies (GELO 1, 4); • concisely, accurately explain and critique information and ideas from

your reading (GELO 1, 3, 4); • use information gleaned from your reading as evidence in your text

and cite that information (GELO 1, 4); • use quotation & summary to create context for readers(GELO 1, 4, 5).

Write with an increased awareness of the process: • discuss specific strategies for prewriting and revision that have

worked for you (GELO 2); • repurpose acquired skills and information to tackle new writing

problems (GELO 2). Read and write with an increased awareness of the language you use: • identify new grammatical forms and imitate them (GELO 1, 2, 3, 4,

5); • analyze and discuss the structure of sentences and the grammatical

choices you make (GELO 2, 3, 5); • identify editing problems in your own writing (GELO 2, 5); • identify and apply effective strategies for editing your work (GELO 2,

5); • identify and apply effective proofreading strategies (GELO 2, 5);

Reflect on and assess your own writing, process and product, to support continued language and writing development (GELO 2, 3, 4).
