In Mary's Blog she goes into Multi-genre projects and her inevitable success with this form of Project Based Learning. She uses this approach to have students analyze their own opinions and viewpoints of literature pieces or even their own works thoroughly. With this they are able to justify anything they have stated and this exercise provides them with more practice. Students have to validate and research their topics and create an annotated bibliography as well. This is also more fun for the teacher because she in turn doesn't have to read the same old boring research papers over and over again. However, she did state the changes between a smaller sized class versus and larger sized class and the success that went along with it. Though it was difficult at first for the larger classroom she was able to adapt and provide a more educational and fun experience for both her and her students.

Hello,
My name is Kelia Fagan I am an EDM 310 student at the University of South Alabama in Mobile, Alabama. I have never completed a multigenre project. However, it just makes sense. I love how you brought real world easy tasks such as making a “to-do list” and incorporated it to a series of events in a rough part of the story. I truly believe this helps the students analyze a difficult series of emotions and compartmentalize them into a list that is simplistic yet thorough. I enjoyed your blog today. Thank you for your time.
