DESCRIPTION:Type: Workshop\nHosted by: SJSU Writing Center\nDuration: 60 m
 inutes\nAvailable Spaces: 40\n\nIntroductions are critical aspects of a pa
 per because their contents and quality can compel a reader to either read 
 or pass over an academic paper and open or close a reader's mind to the co
 ntents within it. An introduction influences the way a reader will underst
 and a paper's contents by hinting at a paper’s purpose and content\, pro
 viding context for understanding the writer’s train of thought\, and est
 ablishing relationships between ideas that are forthcoming. A strong intro
 duction will pique a reader's interest and make them eager to read your pa
 per. This workshop will offer techniques for writing and revising compelli
 ng introductions.\n\nZOOM REGISTRATION REQUIRED

SUMMARY:Going to the Moon

CATEGORIES:free,literary
DESCRIPTION:Visit the Center for Steinbeck Studies\, MLK Library 5th Floor
 \, for a reading by SJSU Lecturer Emerita Sally Ashton\, in conversation w
 ith Prof. Daniel Rivers\, from her new book Going to the Moon\, published 
 by Duke University Press.\n\nIn 2022\, poet Sally Ashton learned that one 
 of her poems would be included in a time capsule to be sent to the Moon vi
 a Astrobotic’s 2024 Griffin/VIPER as part of the Lunar Codex project. Fo
 r her\, this event seemed like the high point in a life spent chasing the 
 Moon\, from a childhood inspired by the space race of the 1960s to an adul
 thood spent in contemplation and conversation with the sky. In Going to th
 e Moon\, Ashton marvels at the Moon’s powerful influence since the dawn 
 of humanity—how we have\, in our own ways\, gone to the Moon\, and what 
 we have found. Contemplating lunar settlement in the light of history\, cu
 lture\, the rise of the space industry\, and geopolitical conflict\, Ashto
 n shares her sense of wonder at the simple beauty of our unchanged Moon an
 d reveals what is at stake in our contemporary attempts to colonize it.\n\
 nThis event is free and open to the public.
