XPUB1 RW&RM - Steve

We will begin at 11:00

Continue to make synopses of texts.

The OUTCOME of the next session will be an ESSAY.

This will use two texts you have made synopsis of; the texts will be compared and you will make an evaluation of their similarities and differences; you will also establish your own position in the discussion. You will identify a question, outline an argument and reach a conclusion. The two texts might agree or disagree, or the juxtaposition may provide interesting nuance.

BEFORE NEXT SESSION

EDITING SYNOPSES

Agree style sheet = keep it simple and use Harvard method

Text editor(s)= organises the text(s) and makes the sentences flow

Copy editor(s) = checks the copy and makes sure it agrees with the style sheet, serves as a second pair of eyes for the text editor

Proof reader (s) = makes sure there are no typos or spelling mistakes, double checks the names and dates &c.
