  • Bashar gen intro

    Who We Are: Student Introductions


    To introduce ourselves and begin building our class community, please create a discussion post in which you share a reflection about who you are and your thoughts on feminism and gender studies. Your initial post should be about 300-400 words (roughly one page, double-spaced if it were a paper).

    In your post, please include:

    • Your name, pronouns, year at Cuyamaca, and some of your interests or hobbies (feel free to share anything else youd like your classmates to know about you).
    • Why you decided to take GEND 116.
    • What you are most looking forward to in this class.
    • Your current perceptions of feminism and/or gender studies. This could include ideas you already have, conversations with friends or family, or messages youve noticed in popular culture and social media (whether supportive, critical, or both).
    • Both Laura Rendn and bell hooks ask us to reimagine education as something beyond information transfer. Rendn reminds us that true learning happens when we honor both the intellect (pensante) and the heart/spirit (sentir), creating a more holistic and humanizing pedagogy. hooks similarly pushes us toward creating spaces where teachers and students alike bring their whole selves into the process of learning. If we were to practice Engaged and Sentipensante Pedagogy together in this online class, what might that look like in our discussion boards, assignments, or interactions? Be sure to include at least one quote or example from our readings to support your reflection.

    Attach a picture of yourself so we can start to put names to faces. If youre not comfortable with that, you can instead share a picture, meme, or piece of art that represents you/something you enjoy.

    Example 1

    My name is Sarah and my pronouns are she/her. I am currently a student at Cuyamaca College. Outside of school, I spend a lot of time with my kids and working on projects around my house. I enjoy decorating and redesigning rooms, gardening and anything diy I live far off in the middle of nowhere, I mean thats what it feels like sometimes .

    I decided to take GEND 116 because I wanted to gain a better understanding of gender, identity, and equality and like many here because it was a required class . These topics come up a lot in society .Sometimes it feels like there are many different opinions about feminism and gender roles .Im hoping this class will help me better understand different perspectives and the history behind it all . I find it very fascinating how everyone has a different view and representation of it .

    One thing Im most looking forward to is hearing different viewpoints . Everyone has different backgrounds and experiences, so I think the discussions will be a good opportunity to learn from each other.

    Right now, my perception of feminism is that its about advocating for equality and fairness,I know people interpret it in different ways.

    Laura Rendn explains that learning should involve both thinking and feeling, describing it as connecting the mind and the heart .Similarly, bell hooks describes education as a practice of freedom. With everything going on in the world today Im excited to hear / read what everyone has to write/say and the different view point we all have.

    Example 2

    • Hi everyone! My name is Sophi, my pronouns are she/her, this is my fourth year at Grossmont/Cuyamaca. A couple of my interests is spending time with my friends and family, listening to music, and watching movies
    • I took GEND 116 mainly because it fulfilled one of my CALGETC requirements, but also because Ive been wanting to take a gender studies class for a while.
    • Im looking forward to learning new things that I dont already know about.
    • I think that many peoples views on feminism, especially those who arent feminist or do not agree with feminism, do not align with what feminism actually is. I think feminism is striving for equality for all genders. My perception of what some may view feminism is, especially on social media, is that feminist are extremist and that they hate men. But on the other hand, with the Olympics and the many film awards that happened recently, Ive been seeing also more videos online of many women like actors, athletes, and etc succeeding in their accomplishments and giving hope to other women which is also very inspiring.
    • I think the readings taught us that education is more than just memorizing information, and that it can encapsulate both intellectual and emotional insight. An example of this from Engaged Pedagogy by Bell Hooks would be, That learning process comes easiest to those of us who teach who also believe that there is an aspect of our vocation that is sacred; who believe that our work is not merely to share information but to share in the intellectual and spiritual growth of our students. Rendon also notes that learning can reach its fullest potential when blending intellect from the mind as well as wisdom from the heart. I think if were to practice what Hooks and Redon, it could mean having sentimental connections through discussion aside from responding just for completion of an assignment, being thoughtful and respectful of each other, and connecting to each other through our views and real-life experiences.

  • Literary analysis essay

    Length: Approximately 2,000 words

    Due Date: March 8 by 10:00 p.m.

    Formatting: MLA (12-pt font, double-spaced, 1-inch margins, MLA header, in-text citations, and Works Cited)

    Overview

    In this assignment, you will write a sustained work of literary analysis on the fiction of Kazuo Ishiguro. Ishiguros novels are known for their quiet emotional intensity, ethical ambiguity, and careful exploration of memory, responsibility, and self-understanding. Your task is to develop an original, thesis-driven interpretation of one (or two) of Ishiguros novels, supported by close textual analysis and engagement with scholarly criticism.

    This is a literary analysis, not a plot summary or book review. Your essay should make an interpretive claim about how the novel(s) create meaning through narrative voice, theme, structure, and character. If you choose a comparative approach, your argument should integrate both texts throughout the essay rather than discussing them separately.

    Essay Task

    In a well-organized, thesis-driven essay of approximately 2,000 words, analyze how Ishiguro explores a central concern, tension, or question in the novel(s). Possible areas of focus includebut are not limited tothe following:

    Memory, forgetting, and self-deception

    Moral responsibility, guilt, and complicity

    Emotional repression and restraint

    Love, care, loyalty, and obligation

    Narrative unreliability and limited perspective

    Human value, dignity, and personhood

    History, myth, and collective memory

    Your essay should address how the text produces meaning rather than simply what happens in the story. Consider questions such as:

    How does the narrators perspective shape the readers understanding of events and characters?

    What is revealed through silences, omissions, or delayed revelations?

    How does the novels structure (memory, repetition, fragmentation, or gaps) reinforce its themes?

    How do genre elements (historical realism, dystopia, fantasy) function ethically or philosophically?

    Scholarly Source Requirement

    Your essay must engage with at least one peer-reviewed critical source, such as a scholarly journal article or a book chapter published by an academic press. This source should be used analyticallyto support, complicate, or challenge your interpretationrather than as background information. Integrate criticism thoughtfully and cite it using MLA style.

    Expectations

    Your essay should:

    Present a clear, arguable thesis early in the essay

    Demonstrate close reading through detailed analysis of specific passages

    Engage meaningfully with at least one peer-reviewed critical source

    Be organized into coherent, well-developed paragraphs

    Be written in clear, formal academic prose

    Follow MLA formatting and citation guidelines

    What to Avoid

    Excessive plot summary

    Biographical essays focused primarily on Ishiguros life

    General or unsupported claims

    Treating scholarly criticism as a substitute for your own analysis

    Submission Guidelines

    Approximately 2,000 words

    MLA format throughout, including a Works Cited page. Failure to include citations in-text or in a Works Cited page will result in a 15-point penalty

    Include your name, course, and date in the MLA header

    Submit via the course learning management system by March 8 at 10:00 p.m.

    Evaluation Criteria

    Thesis and Argument (25%)

    Clarity, originality, and strength of the central thesis; effectiveness of the overall argument; sustained focus throughout the essay.

    Close Reading and Textual Analysis (35%)

    Depth and specificity of analysis; effective use of quotations; attention to language, narrative voice, structure, and detail.

    Engagement with Scholarly Criticism (10%)

    Meaningful integration of at least one peer-reviewed critical source; ability to use criticism to support, complicate, or challenge the essays argument rather than replace it.

    Organization and Coherence (15%)

    Logical structure; clear paragraph development; effective transitions; overall coherence of the essay.

    Style, Mechanics, and MLA Format (15%)

    Clarity and precision of prose; grammar and mechanics; correct MLA formatting, citations, and Works Cited page.

    Tip: Strong essays often focus on moments of uncertainty, contradiction, or moral tension. Pay attention to what Ishiguros narrators misunderstand, suppress, or only gradually come to recognize. Keep in mind that for this class weve read Klarna in the sun, an artist of the floating World, the remains of the day, never let me go, and the buried giant.
