Announcements |
| ∗ For Friday's section (10/23/09), please prepare answers to the midterm exam study questions and bring 1 large blue book. [1:45 PM 10/21/09] |
| ∗ Journal 2 due Monday 10/12/09 in lecture. A few notes about the assignment: |
| - the length requirement is the same: 1-2 pages (no more than 2 pages!) |
| - given that, roughly half your response should be devoted to your summary, and half for analysis |
| - the assignment sheet says you can analyze 1-2 quotes/claims. It is probably better to just focus on one, and analyze it deeply, rather than analyze 2 distinct quotes superficially |
| - You should not write an intro/conclusion connecting the summary with the analysis. Treat them as separate tasks--your summary comes first, then your analysis. All you'll really need as a transition between the two is to start your analysis paragraph by introducing the quotation/claim (e.g., using the example we discussed in class: "Smith begins her article with a quotation from Susan Brownmiller, which states, "Rape is..."".). And although your analysis will surely address some of the ideas contained in your summary, the quote/claim you analyze doesn't need to specifically come up in your summary. [7:20 PM 10/9/09] |
