#113 Process-Based Writing: Draft Session 1

10/2/2016

0 Comments

 
Review rubric
  • Access the Humanities and Social Sciences Grading Rubric (PDF) through this link or the “H&SS Grading Rubric” button to the right.
  • Take a few minutes to compare the “Superior Paper” and “Needs Help paper” columns. Consider:
    • What is the difference between evidence that is “well-integrated” and “plopped-in”?
    • How does one “defuse counter-arguments” in a paper like this?
    • Is anything here unclear or in need of further elaboration?

Review due dates
  • Access the Unit 1 Process-Based Essay (Google Doc) through this link or the “Constitution Essay” button to the right.
  • Scroll to the bottom to identify due dates. Please note that these are fixed and at this point you should take initiative to ensure you are using your time as efficiently as possible. These due dates allot you two homework sessions (total 1 hour) and the bulk of two class session (75-80 minutes) to complete a polished draft of your paper, and then another in-class session and homework assignment to revise your paper.
  • From this point forward the onus is on you to communicate early and often if you are struggling with this assignment.

Next steps
  • Continue transforming your outline into written draft form. Before next class, you should aim to:
    • Have a polished introductory paragraph.
    • Started substantial work on at least one other paragraph.
  • ​If you have additional time, please use it efficiently to continue the drafting process.

While you are working, I will circulate to provide feedback on outlines as needed.
