Today we will review the narrative work you submitted last week (#3), and I'll provide some time for you to look over the kinds of mistakes you have made (if any). Then we'll start essay 4, which is actually not an essay but a series of short answer (paragraph length) responses. There will be a short essay midterm today after break.
Essay: (#4) Summary/Response and Quotation Work: Read the photocopied chapters from P.M. Forni's book Choosing Civility, which take the form of both process (intructional) and cause/effect analysis. Respond in summary form to the chapter ideas and prompts provided. Use the format indicated in the prompt to introduce chapter title, author, focus, and a sufficient and interesting review of his major points and means of support or illustration. Relate experience of your own or provide commentary to "talk to" the points he makes and your imagined audience. Quote several line(s) or parts of lines that convey his ideas particularly well. Punctuate them as direct quotations and see that they “fit” grammatically in the sentence and paragraph in which you have placed them or set them off.
