Watched the following presentation:
DeVlieger, Kristie. Monomyth Strikes Back. https://youtu.be/0oSxmmD1918
Abstract: The Monomyth, commonly referred to as The Hero’s Journey, examines the stages of the hero who goes on an adventure, faces a crisis, and returns victorious. This narrative framework has relevance in a variety of fields, including marketing, narrative creation, classroom instruction, and literature analysis. As a WRT (Writing) major, I encountered many stories that would have benefited from the monomyth and sought a way to provide a tool to fill this need for student writers. My research involved reading related texts and creating a survey to evaluate current student knowledge. I learned several of the invisible research components, user accessibility training, and two software systems. I was able to create a Subject Guide on the Monomyth for the Library Website, that provides a comprehensive introduction to the topic and provides further resources. The Monomyth has continued importance as new applications of the framework develop, something I have been experimenting with since.

I hadn’t been aware of the following 2 sources on Kristie's guide and had fun/learned from reading them:

I hadn’t been aware of the following 2 sources on Kristie's guide and had fun/learned from reading them:
- Kenneth W. Davis & Scott R. Weeden's Teacher as trickster on the learner's journey – found this interesting as I’ve often found myself in the trickster role in my life but hadn’t considered its relevance to teaching. Also, I really resisted the call to teach, and went through the archetypal journey in learning to teach well!
- Carl B. Yoke's Slaying the Dragon Within: Andre Norton's Female Heroes – read some Norton while growing up, and also have looked to the heroic women examples of authors like Lois McMaster Bujold, Ursula Le Guin, Laurie Marks, Robin McKinley, and Sharon Shinn. Davis, Kenneth W, and Scott R. Weeden. "Teacher As Trickster on the Learner's Journey." Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning. 9.2 (2009): 70-81.
