Essentials of College Rhetoric Week 7: Ms. Lowery Essentials of College Rhetoric

Class overview Quoting Paraphrasing Summarizing Example of RA Integrating quotations BA 5 In-Class Assignment for Week 8

Quoting Quoting involves using a source’s exact words. You might use a direct quotation to catch readers’ attention or make an introduction memorable.

When do you quote? Ch.13 of e-handbook wording that is so memorable or powerful, or expresses a point so perfectly, that you cannot change it without weakening the meaning authors’ opinions you wish to emphasize authors’ words that show you are considering varying perspectives respected authorities whose opinions support your ideas authors whose opinions challenge or vary greatly from those of others in the field

Integrating quotes properly You have to naturally fit the quotation into your own sentence structure. This means using signal phrases. Ex: Gee states, “Games often come with manuals” (547). Ex: The use of video game manuals will “blah blah” (Gee 548). Ex: According to Gee, “games often come with manuals” (547). Ex: In paragraph three, Gee recommends “blah” (548).

Paraphrasing A paraphrase restates in your own words the entirety of the original passage’s point. You must cite the source by page number if one is available. It is best to paraphrase only short passages

When do you paraphrase? When you want to emphasize especially significant ideas by retaining all of the points or details from the original When you want to clarify ideas that are complex or language that is dense, technical, or hard to understand. Look at page 127.

Example Paraphrased sentences Original: Her life spanned years of incredible change for women. Paraphrase: Mary lived through an era of liberating reform for women.  Original: Giraffes like Acacia leaves and hay and they can consume 75 pounds of food a day. Paraphrase: A giraffe can eat up to 75 pounds of Acacia leaves and hay everyday.  Original: Any trip to Italy should include a visit to Tuscany to sample their exquisite wines. Paraphrase: Be sure to include a Tuscan wine-tasting experience when visiting Italy.   From YourDictionary.com

Summarizing Presenting in your own words a condensed version of a writer’s points in a way that connects to your own ongoing discussion

When do you summarize? When the source directly supports your thesis, presents ideas you will analyze, or offers a position you wish to argue against When the source offers important background information for your ideas When you need to provide readers with an overview of a source’s whole argument before analyzing particular ideas from it When you want to condense and clarify information from a source

Works cited Cite your articles like a reprinted text in an anthology. (Ch. 16 d, #10, read the “note”) Ex: Gee, James Paul. “Situated Meaning and Learning: What Should You Do After You Have Destroyed the Global Conspiracy?” What Video Games Have to Teach Us about Learning and Literacy, 2007: 71-113. Rpt. in First-Year Writing: Writing in the Disciplines 7th Custom Edition TTU. Ed. Susan Lang et al. Boston: Pearson, 2013. 547-551. Print.

Examples of when to use quotes

Activity With your partner, evaluate whether or not your partner successfully identified and explained his/her quote What suggestions for changes would you give? Be sure to write these on your partner’s in-class assignment.

For BA 5 Description: Begin by writing your working thesis at the top of your assignment. Then, select a minimum of five quotations from the article that you will use as examples of particular rhetorical choices (sometimes referred to as rhetorical devices). Write a brief assessment of why each quotation would be useful to you in composing your draft. Your assessment of each quotation should include your answers to the following questions: Where will this quotation fit in your organization? How does it demonstrate the points you are trying to make about the author's writing? Your analysis, not counting the quotations, should be 500-650 words. You should include a works cited in your BA 5. NOTE: You may find that in identifying and evaluating your quotations, you will modify and improve your original thesis statement.

Review Quotations BA 5 In-Class Assignment for Week 8: Read the student samples of RAs for 1301 on page 574-582. Further instructions will be sent by email as well as posted on the blog.
