This blog is to be used by my students in Introduction to Literature at the Arab American University - Jenin in the occupied Palestinian territory for reflective responses to prompts.

For information on how the Israeli occupation is affecting Palestinian higher education, go to AAUJ and the Effect of Occupation and Conflict.

My favorite selection



Choose one of the three selections you have read recently from World Views: Multicultural Literature for Critical Writers, Readers and Thinkers (last Jump by James W. Ryan, Number One Son by Monfoon Leong and Ceremony by Leslie Marmon Silko). Think of one major reason why you liked or did not like reading the selection and develop your answer in a well-constructed paragraph. Be specific; do not write exclusively in generalities or abstractions.
