Narrative: In this In-Program ILC entitled\u00a0Eating the Past: A Food Memoir Anthology,\u00a0<\/em>this student has taken on the formidable task of contacting, editing, and compiling the work of herself and her peers into an anthology. Students in the program\u00a0Comparative Eurasian Foodways<\/em>\u00a0wrote eating\/tasting\/food memoirs that were meant to encapsulate the foods, tastes, and eating habits of their ancestors, families, and selves. To do this, students reflected on their own lives, reached out to family members, and some even did DNA testing in order to access the pasts that had\u00a0been forgotten or lost. They also kept tasting notebooks, and reflected on the different types of cuisines they tasted throughout the quarter. In winter quarter\u2019s memoirs, students looked backwards in time to their ancestors and genetic origins, foraged for dishes passed, and discovered reasons for the way they are\/eat today. This quarter, in\u00a0Eating the Past: A Food Memoir\u00a0Anthology\u00a0<\/em>this student will create two versions, online and print, of an anthology meant to showcase the hard work that she and her peers put into the memoirs of the previous quarter. The process of doing so will start by her contacting each student to see whether or not they want to submit their work, if they want to edit the piece, and if so where they are in the editorial process.\u00a0After this she will engage one on one with each student to collaboratively edit their work in order to get the piece to a place where both the author and editor feel comfortable publishing the work. After she has gone through this process with each student, she will begin the compilation phase of the project. This part will look like organizing all the files into a workable format, arranging (and re-re-rearranging if necessary) so that the book as a whole flows in a cohesive manner. After the student has everything in an order she feels confident in, she will begin working with InDesign. This part of the process will look like organizing each page of each memoir in terms of not only words, but also any images the authors want to include (which will necessitate another round of contacting each student), and also author bylines, headings, and all the other required bits and bobs that make an anthology a beautiful compilation of work. As the student does all of this, she will simultaneously be creating the online version via a WordPress ePortfolio. The online version will require the same work of organizing, ordering, inserting images, and publishing. At some point in this process, the student will also have to work on securing funding for the print version. Provided everything goes swimmingly, the final product will be a physical manifestation of the hard work student put into creating their food memoirs over the course of the past quarter, as well as a free and easily-accessible online version. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Student Info Name: Dawn Mischele ArnTerm: Spring 2020Credits: 12Title of ILC or Group Project: Eating the Past: A Food Memoir Anthology Field Supervisor Field supervisor: Sarah Williams Title: FacultyOrganization: The Evergreen State College Subcontractor Name: Petra ArbayoTitle: Faculty \/ StaffOrganization: The Evergreen State College Program of Project Description Narrative: In this In-Program ILC entitled\u00a0Eating the […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/cefie-portfolio-s20-arn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/cefie-portfolio-s20-arn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/cefie-portfolio-s20-arn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/cefie-portfolio-s20-arn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/cefie-portfolio-s20-arn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/cefie-portfolio-s20-arn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":78,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/cefie-portfolio-s20-arn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/35\/revisions\/78"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.evergreen.edu\/cefie-portfolio-s20-arn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Learning objective
<\/strong><\/td>Activity<\/strong><\/td> Deliverable<\/strong><\/td><\/tr> Editorial Processing <\/td> This process will involve me drafting a Media Release Form, contacting students in order to obtain the memoirs and any additional visuals they wish to include, engaging in a collaborative editorial process with each student (including working through Revision, Line-Editing, and Proofreading stages), and finalizing the memoirs. <\/td> I will document my progress on a WordPress ePortfolio with weekly updates, and my faculty will be able to see the final products: and online and print version of the anthology. <\/td><\/tr> Adobe and WordPress Proficiency <\/td> This stage will involve the organization of the memoir files using a WordPress website that will become the online anthology. For the print publication, the process will involve gaining proficiency in using the Adobe products such as InDesign and Photoshop in order to curate the final print version. I will need to use Adobe products to arrange each memoir on the page with the desired visuals, and organize the memoirs in relation to each other so that the book flows coherently as a whole. I will have to finalize the book to the point where it is ready to be sent to the printers. <\/td> This part will be documented on the same WordPress ePortfolio as the editorial updates, also on a weekly basis. I will also be in regular contact with my Subcontractor, Petra Arbayo, to check in on progress and inquire when help is needed. \u00a0<\/td><\/tr> Securing Funding & Publishing\u00a0 <\/td> In order to obtain the funds required for the print version of this anthology to become a reality, I will need to secure funding. I will also need to discern which printers I would like to work with on this project. \u00a0<\/td> As with all other parts of this process, I will be posting weekly updates on a WordPress ePortfolio. My faculty will know if I have been successful in this endeavor if there is a print book at the end of the quarter: a physical manifestation of the class’s hard work, and my labor coming to fruition. <\/td><\/tr> Foodways During COVID-19 <\/td> I will be reading selections from\u00a0Shark’s Fin and Sichuan Pepper: A Sweet and Sour Memoir<\/em>\u00a0of Eating in China<\/em>\u00a0by Fuchsia Dunlop, and posting my response to a faculty-generated prompt on a WordPress ePortfolio. I will also be posting about my own experience eating amidst a pandemic, along with my responses to CTA’s own questions. <\/td> Responses will be posted and evaluated via WordPress ePortfolio. \u00a0<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Evaluation of Work<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
