Revising

First of all, thinkwrite about this: Copying is Not Theft.


Then bring your Problem/Solution draft onscreen.  Upload it in Moodle to the TurnItIn assignment, but be sure to choose Part 1.

After that, you are going to work on these parts of your essay:

A thesis:  one sentence that contains both the problem and the solution.  This may be in your introduction, or it may be in the middle where you transition from problem to solution.  When it is written, highlight it in RED.

Statements to convince us of the importance of your problem.  Highlight these with green.  Label them as Pathos, Logos or Ethos in [brackets].         

Go back to the beginning and work on your hook.  Highlight it with yellow.    

A statement that motivates us to help with the solution. Hightlight this with blue.

At the end of class, save this file and continue to revise for tomorrow.

Homework:

1.  Draft #2 will be worked on tomorrow as well.

2.  TWFTD:  You choose a word you've heard lately.  Look it up in the OED.
