Project with Feedback #3: Next Summary/Eval/Response

You hand in your Agger papers, if you haven't already. There should be a Works Cited page with it.

I return your Kickstarters on paper. Answer these questions:

1. You tell me one strength and one weakness of your paper (this can be your opinion or mine).

2. What did you find the most difficult about writing this paper?

3. Please tally up your proofreading/grammar errors again.

4. This assignment was supposed to give you practice with:

• A. Creative thinking/writing.
• B. Assessing the effectiveness of others' writing.
• C. Effectively communicating in a new genre.

Please comment on each of the above. Did you, in fact, get practice in that area, and did you gain any insights on your own abilities in these areas? You may repeat yourself.

Now, a thinkwrite: Reading with an "open mind." I explain what that means to me....what does it mean to you?

We review what Project #3 with Feedback entails. Draft #1 is due this Wednesday.

Homework:

1. Continue taking notes about your chosen reading in Bedford. Begin drafting your summary/evaluation/response.

2. TWFTD:  critical thinking (the phrase).

Solo Project #2 Due: "Lazy Eyes"

We create a Works Cited page for both versions of Agger. Print (add your last name to the header).


Print your paper to hand in. Open a copy of your paper on the computer.  We do things to it.

Now name that new version of your paper Agger with colors, save it, and upload it into Turnitin in Moodle.

I hand out the assignment sheet for the next paper.  You need to skim the articles, choose one, and read it for Monday.  If you wish to improve your "Lazy Eyes" paper, you may, and hand it in Monday.

Homework:

1. Read ONE of the articles in Bedford listed on the pink sheet. Feel free to write in the book to comment/question it.

2. TWFTD: intellectual property (as a phrase).

3. Are you a dog or a wolf?

Sentence Practice

Hopefully, you have some idea what I mean now if I ask you to write a compound sentence or a complex sentence. This is just nomenclature.

As practice, fix the following run-on sentence four different ways. In other  words, there are two ICs stuck together. Use conjunctions or punctuation to correct:

Education is an elusive word it often means different things to different people.

Work on paper due tomorrow.

NOTE: Tomorrow at the beginning of class I will walk you through creating a Works Cited page that cites BOTH the print and the online versions of this article. To get to use this page (as an extra page) your paper MUST mention the existance of BOTH versions of the article.

Homework:

1. Your Solo Project #2 is due tomorrow. Remember, print it out to proofread it. Read it OUT LOUD. Look for the kinds of errors I found in your last paper. Then fix and print again.

2. TWFTD: elude in OED.
