You're gonna do great!!

Our institution uses TurnItIn.

I also have been telling students on my syllabus that it's not my job to prove whether something is AI, but it's their responsibility to prove that they wrote it themselves, so to keep early drafts, notes or to be ready to share a document with version history

Garamond to make my poetry sound nicer.

Baskerville to make my prose sound nicer.

—memory, a "this I believe" essay, a letter to someone in your past.

Happy to share more!

—poetry, how we define it, what to expect, etc. and this leads into a writing exercise where they compose an ars poetica. Langston Hughes "Mother to Son" is also great for teaching extended metaphor.

I save CNF for the end, I tend to teach memoir style writing exercises: write about your first—

—but often misunderstood.

Most intro students struggle with poetry. They write rhyming poetry, because it's what they think poetry is. I often ask students to revise rhyme out or use internal rhyme. Get familiar with how chatGPT writes poetry. I start the poetry unit with a discussion of what is—

I find theme is the hardest thing to teach, especially since it hinges on characters and plot. Some intro students struggle with scene, so I start with a writing exercise where they need to spend 20 minutes writing a 1-minute scene. Remind your students that the most compelling villains arent evil—

Silence, centrist.

Thank you! I'm just a CNF writer turned poet trying my hand at fiction 😅😅
