Kist- Multigenre Autobiography

As of now things are going pretty smoothly with my Multigenre Autobiography. I still have some work to do, but I feel like I am going in the right direction. Building my Multigenre Autobiography has been very enjoyable. I never realized how books, television shows, and movies played such a huge role in my life. It's fun to think about what kind of texts I enjoyed as a child up till now, and it's interesting to see how my reading habits have changed over time.

While building my Multigenre Autobiography, I noticed that computers and movies did not play a significant role in the classroom. When reflecting on texts from school all I could think of was books, and occasionally movies pertaining to those books.I truly hope that I can integrate more than just text books in my classroom.I feel that using more than one kind of text in the classroom would be advantageous to the students who will be in my classes.

I would definitely use this assignment with kids in my class, because they too will see how much multi-modal literacies affect their lives.

  1. I didn't realize the large role that books, T.V., and movies played in my life either. I'd like to integrate many texts into my future classroom as well because they are imperative in shaping who people are and who they will become.
