*Group Pics Professor´s take on Topic, Thesis, and Purpose Statements (1, 2, 3, 4) Peer Reading Pitfalls: imitating the instructor and acting like an editor. Types of Reading: read as a "common reader", read to "know the
writer"(values, assumptions, opinions and their effect on the text, the
writing process and thesis clarity, unknowns), read to "diagnose key
problems", and read to "improve paper" (by comparing it to
models). Peer Interaction: summarize, stop and predict, ask questions, label problems,
and make suggestions. Narrative: The narrative paragraph / Video examples (1, 2, 3)/ Read Section 44 “Narrating” p. 474-82 Peer Eval Thesis Statement |
