Now that you have explored two works of narrative prose from the Modern period, you will engage in a phone or web-based "check for understanding" with your instructor. This conversation will serve as your Application for this topic and will cover "Araby" by James Joyce and "Shooting an Elephant" by Geroge Orwell. During this conversation, your instructor will provide you with a prompt or series of questions about the material that you just learned. Your instructor will expect you to provide detailed information about this topic's content. In order to prepare for this activity, you should make sure that you have:

1. read or viewed the material that has been covered in this topic,
2. taken notes on any assigned content, and
3. reviewed your notes and instructor feedback from previous assignments.

Your instructor may provide you with more details about this assignment. Please contact your instructor to set up a time to talk to him or her via phone or web conference.
