July 8

Today, we got our workshop groups and discussed each group member's paper.  We followed the structure we discussed previously (see slide 46 on the PowerPoint) and answered the following topics:

Required Discussion Topics

1. Authors concerns
2. Did the paper follow only one thread?
3. Is the thread supported with class activities and assignments?
4. Does the author explain how each activity and assignment affected the thread?
5. Is the paper at least three double spaced pages?

Homework:

• Embed your final draft of the Definition Essay and Discourse Communities Comparison on your blog.
• Bring supplies to work on your Research Essay, Final Reflection and presentation tomorrow.

Note: All final drafts must be turned in on time in order to pass this course.
