Three Hour Workshop. This course offers students the opportunity to write, read, and workshop their own original poetry. It will draw upon the work of a wide range of acclaimed poets from a variety of cultures to open possibilities for emerging poets to explore. Students will be encouraged to think critically about their poetry and accordingly will be asked to write an analytical “frame” for their final portfolio, considering “how the poems work”. Because of the workshop structure of the course, it is essential that all students attend class regularly and participate fully. Students will leave the course with the “tools” to write publishable poems.
