Let's brainstorm some ideas for the first essay:
• Respond to the article on A.P. courses and liberal arts education
• Respond to the Op-Ed in The State on merit pay
• Respond to my Op-Ed in The State
• Respond to Emerson's The American Scholar
• Respond to Jefferson's comments on education
• Consider what is teachable, and what is unteachable (Vonnegut essay)
• Pick your own topic related to education, democracy, or the relationship between the two
Regardless of your topic, be sure to make purposeful decisions about the GENRE/form of the essay and your intended audience.
