? By Thomas Hardy And ?A View From The Bridge? Essay, Research Paper

In this piece of coursework our class had

to be split up into groups of three or four and have discussions about topics

on the two texts ?The mayor of Casterbridge? and ?A view from the bridge?. The

topics were:? Comparisons

of the two texts. ? Similarities

between the two texts. ? The

downfalls of the two main characters. ? What

makes a tragedy?My group consisted of four people, Me, Mario Noto, Liam

Noonan and David Hawthorn. We each took turns at speaking about all of the

points, trying to talk smoothly and through flowing. We had to make sure we

were able to talk to each other without shouting and without interrupting each

other as we talked. Also, we had to use Standard English, not ?slang? and we

had to constantly refer to the texts. I feel our group did this very

well; we all listened to each other allowing each person to talk, one at a

time. We were always trying to use Standard English and we referred to the

texts continuously. ????????? Our

teacher, Mr Duffy, who was relentlessly walking around the classroom overseeing

us all, was making his own assessment of us, taking notes and asking us

questions, trying to contribute to the conversation. ????????? Before this

conversational session we had studied the two texts in great depth, by doing

many essays and exercises on each of them, so we all had a good understanding

of the characters, issues, background and context of each of the texts and if

we didn?t, we surely had a good understanding of them all at the end of our

conversational session. ????????? ? ?????????
