Article 4 Response: Multi-genre Projects

I decided to read Living Thin, which is a girl's story about her battle with eating disorders. I found this to be very interesting. I think I like this way of presenting research because it isn't just a 10 page paper of straight facts and analysis. It seemed really personal and it had a lot of different ways of showing information. She wrote about the different feelings she experienced while fighting Anorexia. She even personifies Anorexia as an abusive boyfriend. This example helped me to understand what exactly a multi-genre project is. I'm not really sure what I want to research, possibly child literacy, or special needs students. Maybe even a mixture of both. Who knows.
