Thursday, March 5th | Writing & Citation

What do I need to know in order to write?
How will I represent my thoughts and research in academic writing?
Who am I as a writer?

We are a week away from our research paper deadline of March 13th. Today, it is important to revisit the expectations for the research paper and develop understandings of each part and purpose. Juniors who have been out testing will benefit from seeing how arguments have been developing this week. 

DO NOW: Prepare materials, intentions, and tabs for writing today. Turn and Talk to share your intention for today with the person(s) next to you. Let them know how they can hold you accountable throughout your studio time.

Include the following in your preparation today:

Everyone should take time to examine how their research is cited in their paper. Share out examples of research cited in-text under a document camera, by projecting on the screen, or rewriting on paper. Allow the group to make suggestions based on the guidelines above. 

It must be clear which ideas belong to you and which ideas come from research.

STUDIO WRITING

REFLECTION: Revisit your pair share from the beginning of class in order to share your progress today. Then, as a group collect suggestions for how to best use the four days of writing and revision that you will have next week.
