Final Problem/Solution Due

You turn in your papers.

A problem  and a solution, in one place.

You have to do a search....You must look online for a piece of Problem/Solution writing. You could find this in a place you visit frequesntly (car magazine, car forum, sports site). The writer should have gathered evidence to support the solution s/he proposes. If you have no ideas, check out artofmanliness.com  or lifehacker.com or  happiness-project.com

Post a link to the site you find in the forum in our class in Moodle titled : Examples of Problem/ Solution Writing.

And do the  handout and save it in your daybook.

Homework:

1. TWFTD:  physiologically in OED

2. Have a safe weekend. Remember your cliché paper.

Hmmm.  Know any clichés?

Well, here's one angle on the cliché question.

What does Everyday Writer say?  See pages 268-269.

Remember this? Derek Sivers

Draft 2 Problem/ Solution

Have one copy of your draft for class today.

Return of Summary/ Response:
A. Copy down the strengths and weaknesses I wrote at the bottom of the rubric.
B. What did you find difficult about Summary/ Response? Try to pick one step of the process.
C. Count of your   c/s    r/o    frag      errors.

Thinking about solutions...or innovations....

You exchange drafts. You may write on the draft, but remember, you're not editing, you're giving feedback.  The goal is clear, effective writing and thinking that goes in-depth.
