Today we are looking at using the techniques we have read about to analyze text to think about audience, purpose, and argument. Hopefully the activity helped you to see how you analyzing this information will help you as you read academic texts.
As new student orientation starts this week we discussed what directed self placement is and what you should be considering about yourself as you register for classes.
We also discussed some housekeeping items regarding reader responses. Please make sure your responses are meeting assignment expectations. If you have questions about what those expectations are begin by rereading the assignment sheet, look over the sample response (posted below) and don't hesitate to ask me for help.
