Welcome
to English 116!
This is a course designed to help you
write argumentative essays, and we’ll be focusing on the issues of
evil and horror in relation to three classic horror novels, Frankenstein, Dracula and
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Since this is an online course, you need to be self-motivated
to a large degree and keep an eye on the schedule and the deadlines.
Posting on the boards and emailing me are the only ways I know you're
"here," so if I don't see anything from you in a while, I might assume
you're done.
Also note that we will be using as little of Blackboard
as possible beyond the discussion boards.
Bb bugs me, so keep in mind that unless you have to make a post or
take a timed essay, you can ignore it all together and reach the
course via http://www.sophiethedog.com/116/
Don't hesitate to email me
if you have any questions, and I promise to reply to your email within
24 hours.
Additionally, I've listed some resources down below
that can be of help. The OWL is
particularly good as long as you work ahead somewhat and give them
at least 48 to respond. The tutors are well-trained and can be a
huge help.
Good luck, and I hope you enjoy the class. Please

Best,
