Description/Instructions:
For each of the following seven methods of interacting with a source, I want you use each to respond to your articles. You need to address at least 6 of your scholarly sources; so two of the following methods can be used for the same article (but with different types of responses). You will write out a few sentences for each of your sources in the method below (so maybe 12 or more sentences total for this assignment). These can be dropped right in you paper, most likely.
For example, your article one and three will use the Agree/DIsagree method – write it out. Your article/source two looks like a place where you can use the Extension method to expand their argument. Article four has some oversights; you are going to use Tempering the Position. Article five makes some good points but uses hyperbolic and generalizing rhetoric – discuss this. Article six is something that cause you to reconsider a part of your initial hypotenuses. These are examples, of course, but the purpose of this assignment is to help you integrate sources for your paper using common ways of responding to sources.
? Agree/Disagree:? What part of the essays main point do you agree or disagree with? Why do you feel the author is right or wrong in her/his opinions? e.g., Although the author makes strong points, I do not think the essay is entirely accurate and, in fact, disagree that X is true based on my personal experience.
? Reflection:? What did this essay make me rethink or reconsider that I may not have thought about before? What impact did it have on my thinking about key ideas? e.g., Before reading this essay I had assumed X, but now I see Y.
? Conversation: ?What might my experiences add to the argument? How might they revise or alter the authors ideas to be more accurate to what I know and think? While I agree with X, it seems to me its even more complicated than the author recognizes.
? Extension: ?Where else could the essays argument go? Can it be applied to other examples? To other kinds of analysis? What other parts of the world did it make you think about? Find it relevant to? The essay offers an intriguing look at X, but I wonder if what he/she says could apply equally to Y.
? Tempering the Position:? Are there other aspects of this topic the author didnt consider? Ideas that readers would be wise to think about before being convinced by this author? Implications the author didnt consider? e.g., Before you think this essay tells the whole story, itd be wise to consider that this argument raises more questions than it answers.
? Rhetorical Analysis:? How effective was the essay for its intended audience? What was its purpose? Did it work? Where did the essay succeed or fail most obviously? e.g., Although I ultimately agree with what the author argues, I dont think he was successful in getting his point across to his intended audience. I would have been much more easily swayed if the essay had done X
? Strength of Argument: ?Did the author support his argument? Where did he fail to develop his thinking? Where did she lapse in logic? Could the authors own argument be turned against him/her? e.g., My agreement or disagreement aside, its important to see if the author can actually objectively support his/her views. Since he/she does not, the argument is both flawed and should not influence others to change their opinions.
