1. Drafting Paper Two
Friday, October 16

2. Citing the Sources in MLA Format
Book titles are italicized, but article titles are “Put into Quotes”
Alphabetize the Works Cited page and do NOT include annotations
See the handout on citing the YouTube, TED Talks, and other videos

3. In-Class Writing: Body Paragraph
Based on reading TSIS and class lectures, use your outline and one of the texts to write a body paragraph analyzing the connection – not the boyd paragraph (use TSIS templates and rough outline sample for reference)
Write a complete paragraph as though it were in your paper (the outlines didn’t all have complete topic sentences)

4. Workshopping Body Paragraph
Using the body paragraph you just wrote, answer the following:
Does your paragraph have a topic sentence that starts the paragraph and makes a claim (your claim)?
Do you explain Boyd’s claim/evidence?
Are you introducing the outside text fully (author(s), title, publication, and argument)?
Do you use a quote to illustrate your claim in the topic sentence and is that quote integrated and properly cited?
Are you explaining the quote?
Do you explain HOW the outside source extends, illustrates, complicates, challenges, or qualifies Boyd’s text BEYOND one sentence or two that says that it does this?
Overall, is your paragraph summarizing only or arguing on the topic like a research paper would do?

5. Homework for 10/19 (Peer Review Workshop)
Revise and polish body paragraph started in class and write another full body paragraph. Bring those two paragraphs and your revised intro and two body paragraphs to class on Monday.
No peer review credit if you come to class without a hard copy of your paper.
