Today's class was far from what i expected. The class is more of a discussion rather than a lecture which is much easier to pay attention to after hours of lectures. We learned and discussed stories and how they create knowledge. Also, the term "creative nonfiction" was introduced as the hard facts with one person's emotions and feeling spun into it, making it much less dry and redundant. For this semester, we will be writing creative nonfiction and i look forward to a new form of writing, not the boring research but writing as i see it with my emotions. We will make knowledge through "intellectual production" which can happen anywhere to create knowledge.
From what i can tell this semester will be very interesting and beneficial to me. in the past, i have always been encouraged to write exactly the facts and nothing else. This style of writing is very new but sparks more of an interest for me.
