Guy Rotell~ E
Kevin Cassell Guy Rotell~e I observed a meeting of Kevin Cassell's ENGl 111 class on March 5, 1999. Students had been assigned two readings, Malcolm X's December 13, 1964, speech at the Audubon Ballroom in Harlem and a U.S. News & World Report report on his 1965 assassination. They had also been asked to prepare two written responses to the readings: to imagine Malcolm's own likely response to the press coverage of his murder, and to focus on the language of a particular paragraph from the Audubon speech. Those would guide the class conversation and then be collected. Before the class session proper began, Kevin introduced me and explained my presence, called the roll, discussed some course mechanics (the number and nature of written responses to be included in the course portfolio; the sorts of revisions his "check" system indicates are required; substitutions for missed assignments), and handed out and briefly discussed a flyer on the Middler Year Writing Requirement (he asked for student versions of the requirement, debunked the more mythic ones offered, and so on). The discussion of the class materials began with a series of questions from the instructor: who is Malcolm X?, the question reiterated in that and other forms until students had presented a fairly well informed portrait. Kevin used the process--often marked by the sorts of follow-up questions that showed he was both listening and knew where he was going--to reinforce such course concerns as an interest in the names, qualities, and contexts of sources, the virtues of specificity and exactitude, and so on.
