Monday my intro to Poetry class starts. I'll use this thread to share a syllabus and share the day to day happenings in the course. If you want to follow along feel free. Subscribe to @POETSorg poem-a-day and @slowdownshow and stay tuned for more.
The class is three weeks long.
It should be fun. We'll learn as we go. This is a wildly different format then I've taught before but hopefully it works for my students and whoever else is interested. I'm thinking as far as the "lectures" I'll hop on 4 days a week or so and talk a bit about each topic...
all the readings are gonna come from online, primarily from @POETSorg and @PoetryFound so i'll post them by week and anyone who wants can read along. I'll probably do some kind of Q&A situation on instagram live and zoom twice a week where we can chop it up.
I was initially gonna do the class as a podcast and I want to work on a poetry podcast later but for now we’ll do it in a less time intensive format that’ll give me a chance to work through the content in a more informal way first.
