Peers? I have no peers!

So, we’ll start out getting back the quizzes and luxuriating in our newfound feelings of brilliance. We’ll see how long they last.

Then, I want to look at 2 sections of “Letter” to get our rhetorical analysis brains in gear.  Paragraph 14. Paragraphs 20-21.

Now, it’s peer editing time.

Reader #1: Check to see that  1) it’s clear what sections of the Letter are being discussed 2) what strategy is being identified 3) that  the grammar and mechanics are reasonably correct

Reader #2: Analyze the depth of analysis of the passages. Does the writer do a good job of explaining not only what the strategy is, but also the reasoning behind that strategy and its effectiveness or connection to other parts of the letter. Does the writer go beyond the obvious and delve into 2nd and 3rd order thinking.

Then, I plan on giving you time to work.

HW: Papers due on Thursday.
