Surprise! My one article on Harry Potter at Suite101.com got more hits than any of the others by far. Should have seen that coming. So in the interest of building a readership there, I wrote another:
As usual, I welcome all questions, comments, and declarations of heresy.
You can tell I’ve got education on the brain, what with this presentation on literacy that I’m doing for Convention Alley. By the way, you can now register for day passes or Keynote presentation w/ meals for Convention Alley. If I understand correctly, the day pass would not get you into the keynote events, but I’ll check to clarify. The prices and keynote events are below the break:Day Passes: $30.00 each
Keynote Tickets: $45.00 each
The Keynote Presentations are as follows:
Friday Lunch - John Granger - Untitled as yet - Topic: Snape and Dante
Saturday Lunch - Travis Prinzi - “Quills, Queries and Quests: Literacy Learning in Harry Potter”
Sunday Brunch - Travis Prinzi - “Fountains, Fabians and Freedoms: Dumbledore as Fabius Maximus and Libertarian Headmaster”
Friday Dinner - Karen Kebarle - “If Rowling says Dumbledore is Gay, is he Gay?: In other words, what do we do with Rowling’s interpretations of her own books?”
Saturday Dinner - John Granger - “Unlocking Deathly Hallows: Five Keys for a Greater Appreciation of the Last Harry Potter Novel”
