Description
Welcome to the After Office Hours podcast, a place for students in my English classes to find supplemental information, study tips, step-by-step guides to completing assignments, and extra credit opportunities. This podcast combats the challenge of material retention on a college meeting schedule (only 2-3 days a week) and increases accessibility by differentiating material for various learning styles.

You've got your first reading assignment in the textbook. Let me walk you through how to read this chapter critically and carefully and make sure you're prepared for the reading quiz.
These are short segments I'll be recording on my Sunday morning drives, which is a crucial time for me to figure out what my teaching goals are for the week and what I want students to gain from my lessons. Because I sometimes use unconvential methods for teaching, it's important that I let you in on my thought process and prepare you for success.
This episode is about audience--tapping into what a reader knows, doesn't know, and wants to know. I'll also talk about how to master a graphic organizer to get the most out of the writing process. I'll close with tips for figuring out your needs as a learner, especially when taking assessments.
In this brief episode, I discuss the strengths and weaknesses of this activity and what I gained from it as a teacher along with the goals you met as students. I also recap the connections we made between "The Lottery" and the music videos.
Need a study buddy? Take a walk down memory lane with me through all the content covered during the first two very busy weeks of class. I'll also preview some quiz questions for you and explain the answers.

Let me help you study for the quiz on the various types of academic dishonesty. I'll recap what we covered in class and test your knowledge with practice questions.
This is a read through of the course addendum (policies and procedures) for all classes. Whether this increases accessibility by providing an audible aid in comprehension or just gives you a refresher on what you heard in class, I hope you find it helpful.
A college-level literary thesis not only contains a topic and a claim, but it also establishes a connection with an audience by stating the significance of your analysis. Let's review literary thesis structure and talk strategies for taking on the challenge of convincing a reader to care. *ENG 103 students will also benefit from this episode.
So you've got your first reading assignment and the instructions are...to read. What information are you supposed to know for the quiz and how will you remember it? Let me help you establish an effective routine for reading carefully and critically.
In this episode, I'll begin teaching you to structure a college-level thesis statement, help you complete the homework packet on structuring a thesis, and help you study for the quiz on this material. You may even get some extra credit.
This lesson pertains to the Santa Barbara City College CLRC Writing Center packet for developing a thesis statement, which can be found here: http://www.crestmont.edu/pdf/cadidates-eveloping-thesis-statement.pdf
