Hey Guys,

For the last few weeks, we have focused on our discussions in class and in workshop. We have transitioned to a mode of workshopping in which you are invited to bring in-process, unfinished material to the “table,” so that we can focus on where you are at the moment and develop the best approach for the next 1-2 steps. Many students are still workshopping their research proposals, because this is a new genre for many! In High School, writers are encouraged to write topic-driven essays. College writers are expected to write problem-driven essays. That’s a lot to think about, so we’re working on that in workshops. This week, we are also integrating some annotated bibliography help.

In class, we will use the following handouts and a worksheet to guide our group activity on the items bolded above. The handouts and worksheet are found in the In-Class Activities and Notes folder in the Shared Folder for Unit 3. They are also linked below (you may need to be logged in to view):

Worksheet: Make a copy of it, put it in your Unit 3 folder, and fill it out. These are all the necessary parts of a research proposal. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1e_8WRAzGDXvE1eSbHCZhnM4c30Cp2geR-Lr1mFHg9kM/edit?usp=sharing
