Learning Module 6 Recap and Next Time

You made it! In this module, we talked about:

  • Getting a revision plan together for your Rhetorical Analysis (due November 5th)
  • Thinking about how to adapt your Rhetorical Analysis to blog writing
  • How your thinking about your research topic and question is involving
  • Using Stasis Theory to help develop a range of research questions
  • Start/continue process of researching your topic
  • Practicing some evaluation of sources connected to your topic
  • Went over Research Question and Attempt Process Document to get that ready to go for October 29th–to help finalize a research question and drill down further on evaluating sources and their connection to your research question.

Next time:

  • Research Question and Attempt Process Document due by 3pm on Thursday, October 29th
  • Make sure you start to coordinate with your Writing Group about getting some peer review done for your Rhetorical Analysis drafts due on November 5th.

There is a task! It has been a longggg semester, I’m sure. We are getting there. I’m really happy to read your writing and am impressed with so much you have done. Keep your head up.

If you have any recommendations for things to watch/read or music/podcasts to listen to, share it in our Slack channel for that!

I have been listening to System of A Down lately because Victor has been writing about this song. I have also been watching The Boys on Amazon Prime, which is really great. Kind of inverts the good guy/bad guy dynamic of superhero movies and has a nice genre blend of that sort of movie and heist/action movies. Really funny, too. I’m also interested in seeing that Borat sequel that is released on 10/23. Have gotten into Superstore, too, which is a solid show I don’t have to think much while watching.

Have a good weekend!
