An Example Paper for Solo #1


We go to Moodle to download the Example Analysis paper there.

1. I want you to rename your copy of the example paper. Type your LAST NAME in front of its name when you do "save as". You will need to remove the markup -- choose the "Review" tab, and halfway across (in the "Track Changes" section) there's a drop-down box where you can choose "No Markup".
2. You are going to use the highlight tool to colorize your copy. Don't let the colors be too dark.
3. Make the title red.
4. Make the introduction and conclusion pink.
5. When the paper discusses example #1, make it yellow. This includes parts of sentences.
6. When the paper discusses example #2, make it pale blue, also including parts of sentences.
7. When the paper discusses BOTH AT ONCE, make it green.
8. Underline the words that refer to the Key Elements being compared. {These are the topics of the paragraphs.}
9. Italicize the thesis or main idea of the whole paper.
10. Make the hook and the clincher bold.

There is some nomenclature going on in the list above-- be sure to ask if you are not sure.

If you finish before the others, use the time to be working on your own paper (Kickstarter Review).

At the end of class, we will upload the colorized document into a forum in Moodle.

Also at the end of class, you will turn in your daybook. Make sure your name is visible on it.

Homework:

1. Read Ch. 21 in The Bedford Guide, pages 420-435. These pages have helpful advice for writing your solo assignment.

2. Continue writing your Solo #1 paper. After you write your ideas about the two Kickstarters, think about an introduction/ conclusion and making transitions between ideas. Are your paragraphs logical units?
