I like contests! I rarely win them, but I still like them!
For the current pod, a picture of one of the poets studied will be featured in the Banner of ENGL 223. The first person to send a message correctly identifying the poet will receive 10 extra credit points.
Sounds fun, right?
So far, we have had three different winners. The first poet was Carl Sandburg, and no one guessed except the winner.
e. e. cummings was the second poet, and there were a couple of submissions correctly identifying him.
More people are accessing the site today judging from the number of messages I received identifying Sylvia Plath. Only the first person receives the points, but there is no way to know whether anyone has guessed yet, or if that person were correct in his/her guess, so always try until I add the winner's name to the announcement.
Stay tuned for more photos. Who knows? I might change it to quotes or other pictures.
Have fun. Blog on!
I love this idea! It has been fun to see what authors look like. Sometimes I kind of forget that the books I read have a face behind them. Haha.
