About this course
Students are introduced to poetic terminology, elements, and techniques through lecture, reading student writing and published authors who represent multiple cultural perspectives and voices. Through discussion that integrates students' experience, poetry analysis, and critical thinking, students write explications, critiques, and original poetry with the goal of deepening their understanding. Students experiment with various forms and approaches to writing poetry and develop critical feedback for peers, reflecting on their own work and using the writing process to generate, revise, and edit poems.
