This is a challenging class, but you may already know that by reputation. You find succor in ‘Comp’ and pick up the same college credit or flounce through English IV Honors and earn the same quality point, but you know that universities smile most kindly on students who don’t shy away from AP courses. In fact, one of the most reliable predictors of college success (in the eyes of university admission officials) is a high school student’s performance in AP courses; a B or higher in 3 or more AP courses makes you highly desirable to universities. While you could be doing anything else with this portion of your pivotal senior year, you choose to challenge yourself as a learner by enrolling in AP Literature. For that, I respect you.  \nBy the way, [bentonenglish.com](bentonenglish.com) is the class website. Despite its deceptively narcissistic name, it’s designed to be quite useful to you. Expect weekly schedule updates, downloadable handouts, e-texts, audio-texts, and other swanky resources shall to be at your disposal.  \nI am strict in a few ways: papers and journals need to be at school by the due date even if you are not. My definition of “cheating” is also very broad. If you write something, you are personally guaranteeing that it is an idea of your own creation. Even closely imitating another human's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and representing them as your own original work is an intellectual, academic, and moral failure. Zeros, referrals, banishment from honor societies, a general fall from grace, and blacklisting by legitimate universities are all reasonable (and probable) consequences for an individual who sins in this way. Approach this course with a teachable mindset: as an opportunity to improve your academic writing.  \nIf you endured AP Language (not at all necessary in order to succeed in this course, though many of its concepts do carry over quite well), you recall that course’s exam focusing on rhetoric: specifically nonfiction. The AP Literature exam is a wholly different beast. To succeed – that is, to avoid wasting your time – you’ll need to be comfortable reading challenging literature on a very analytical level. No matter the text, you must be capable of considering its structure, style, figurative language, imagery, symbolism, tone, and themes. I will help with this.  \nThat said, you must do the assigned reading to succeed in this class. I truly mean that. Once we start on new texts by the second or third week of class, you’ll received a detailed reading schedule that asks you read about 15 minutes a day. As helpful as Google and all the digitized collective ideas of the human race are, you will never finish this race if you shoot yourself in the foot with the starter’s pistol.  \nYou’ve (hopefully) read all sorts of literature already in your academic career. For this year’s class, there are about a dozen diverse works that I’ve selected to add to your literary arsenal; all of them require unhurried, careful reading. You will truly reap what you sow.  \nWithin this packet you’ll find the College Board’s Curricular Requirements for this course, a Course Description, a Wish List of supplies I am shamelessly begging for, and a mandatory Student Contract. After reading this packet thoroughly, please detach and return the final page, the Syllabus Agreement, by Thursday, August 21st, or within three school days of your receipt of this packet.  \nMr. Benton  \nCurricular Requirements  \nC.1- The teacher has read and will fully abide by the most recent AP English Course Description, available for download download on the AP English Literature and Composition Course Home Page.  \nC.2- The course includes an intensive study of representative works such as those by authors cited in the AP English Course Description.
