I am submitting a presentation proposal for NCTE 2011 on teaching the hero’s journey. I think the presentation would work well with the conference theme of “Reading the Past, Writing the Future.”
If you are interested in and knowledgeable about the hero’s journey, archetypes, and the like, I would like to invite you to present with me. If you are interested, please leave a comment or contact me via email on the contact page. We can talk further from there.
Update: Thanks for your interest. We have a group. Cross your fingers for us that our proposal will be accepted.
I'd love to contribute.
If you want someone to talk about the hero's journey, you should ask Kal over at http://www.clickok.co.uk/index4.html ; no-one knows it better than him.
Would love to see what direction(s) you're going and join in if something I've done in the classroom might serve as a good example!
I will keep all of you posted. We might have a group, but I'll let you know if we need anything. Thanks for volunteering.
Wish I could join you! The use of the Ira Progoff's Intensive Journal process helps people of any age discover their own journeys and how to be heroes in their own lives. Visit dialoguehouse dot com.
