I’ve written about using Shawn Coyne’s story structure as a way of thinking about the structure of things I’m teaching. Now I’ve been experimenting with using that structure as a way to organize analysis papers.

In these two samples, I let students see how they could organize a paper on King Lear and John Donne’s Holy Sonnets and respectively. Several students told me after class they dug the process and will try to implement it themselves on their upcoming research papers.
