Month: February 2014

We’ll start off with a bit of review this morning:

Have a look at your learning goals and success criteria for unit one. So far we’ve looked at literary devices and methods of argumentation. Check and see how comfortable you are with success criteria so far. Are there any things you feel you need more practice with?

Then we’re going to move on to looking at parallel structure. Here’s the handout you’ll need: parallel structure

Once we’re done that, I want you to pull out your proposals and we will figure out dates for the three checkins for your project. You will have the rest of the period for finishing your proposals: specifically the details for your three check-ins while I finish the last few conferences I need to finish.

 

Today you’re going to be learning about rhetoric and argumentation. Here’s the handout for it: Logos Pathos Ethos

This week, I’d like to check your proposals again so please make sure you have the three spots filled out where you explain what your “deliverables” will be at each check-in. We will figure out the check-in dates tomorrow.

We’re continuing our work from yesterday. It’s obviously taking me longer than I’d planned to get through conferences so we may have to make a plan to get through conferences at lunch.

 While I am conferencing, keep working on your proposals. If you are completely stuck you can read.

Either way, don’t get stressed out about the project proposal. I will help you come up with a project that works. I promise.
