Revising Using TurnItIn/Works Cited Page

Survey:

Have you mentioned ANY of the appeals?  Think -- logos?  ethos?  pathos?

How is your paraphrasing?  Check the percent of matching.  Fifteen is okay-ish.

 Schor's essay has a Works Cited page.  You need to create one for this  paper, citing the article you are discussing.  If you mention both articles, both must be listed. If you already know how to do this, go ahead on your own. 
 
If you are not sure, you may use online tools to help you. SCC has paid for a deluxe version of EasyBib.  I am posting helpful videos about it here, but if you want to figure it out on your own, that's fine too.

Click here  to go to EasyBib. Open it in a window next to this one.

1. Log in and create an account.  That way it will save your information, and you can work on it from any computer.  Remember what you choose for password, etc. (write it in your daybook?) They will NOT send you spam. If you don't log in, everything will be lost when you quit.

 Click here for an introductory tutorial.

2. You will "create a project" and call it Sum/Analysis.  Then click on "Bibliography" to start. 

3. Then click on this tutorial on how to enter the information for a book.

NOTE:  The Bedford Guide is your source, and you must enter ALL the authors.  Your article is treated as a chapter/essay within that source, and you must click on "Add another contributor" and select "Section author" in order to match your author to his/her article within Bedford.

3. When you type information in, you must make correct capitalization and spelling choices;  the computer does it YOUR way.

4.  After filling all the useful boxes, click the "create citation" tab at the bottom.

5. The next page will have a "Print as Word Document" button.  Click on that and a correctly formatted page in Word should open (you may have to disable a pop-up blocker). Print it.

Homework:

1.  On Monday have a revised draft of this essay and a printed Works Cited page.

Peer Review

Here's someone describing the "problem" and some solutions.

You read and comment on two of your peers' drafts.

This is an important opportunity to help each other make sure that you have read and understood the article.  If a student's writing is not clear to you -- if you're not sure what they are saying, or what they understand about the article -- MAKE THAT CLEAR.

Just like with Legos, the test here is being clear and easy to understand.  You are making the article easy to understand for an audience who has never read it.

Today at some time you must upload your draft into TurnItIn in Moodle. I'll be able to look at it there, and hopefully you'll get help for changes.

Homework:

1.  Draft 2 is going to be due on Monday. It will also get uploaded into Moodle on Monday (as Part 2).

2. TWFTD:  materialism

Draft 1 Due

Form groups of three who wrote about the same article.

First of all, using your annotations and your drafts, together create an outline of the article you read.  Your outline should show main points and support for those points.

Each group puts the outline on the board.

As there is time, you will fill out the Writer's page.  Tomorrow you will read drafts;  feel free to improve your draft based on today's discussion.

Homework:

1.  Improve your draft and bring it to class. It should have both summary and analysis in it.

2. TWFTD:  consumerism as it is used in your articles. 

Practicing Summary/Analysis

Get into groups at the board with your annotated articles.

Each group must create a graphical representation of their article (think flow chart).

Begin your rough draft.

Homework:

1.  Draft 1 due tomorrow;  have a hard copy ready at the beginning of class.

2.  TWFTD:  a word from your article.

Summary/Analysis

We look at your evidence questions. How about the sibling annotations?

I hand out print copies of the articles for annotation.

Time to annotate.

Get into groups (or not) and label points, support, evidence.  Circle words you're not sure of. Write down questions and comments.

This annotated paper will be handed in with your Final Version.

I collect the daybooks.
                        Special add-ins:  Notes for the long observation paper
                                                    Annotated sibling handout
                                                    Annotated letter re: The Tweet

Homework:

1.  Continue to read and analyze the article.  Your rough draft is  due Wendesday. Remember, you are doing both summary and analysis. There will be some time for writing tomorrow.

2.  TWFTD:  pick a word from your article.
