Comments from Support Team: 10 point questions should

Approximately 2-3 pages in length. The structure of your reflection is up to you (answering all in one essay form, answering # questions, etc.), but it should explain in your own words the process of creating your project and use your RAIDS analysis guide from the start of the semester to answer these questions:

1) How did you Invent material for this project? (How/where did you and your partner get your material?)

2) Why did you choose the Arrangement that you did, and what was it? (What way did you organize your project, and why did you organize your project this way?)

3) What Style choices did you make in writing? Why?

4) How did you use the Delivery method (an essay) to make your points?

5) What Revision advice did you get in peer review/etc., and how did you apply this advice to your final draft? What ideas and information did you Revise as you wrote (your understanding? the audience’s expectations?)

6) Include an accounting of your individual contribution to the project and a discussion of your team’s working dynamics (how did you work together?)

7) Lastly and most important: what do you believe has been successful in your essay? What would you change, revise, or do differently if you had a ‘do-over’? What did you learn about yourself, your writing, and inquiry/analysis as you wrote this essay (What can you take forward from this writing into future work)?

On Project 2, we worked more fully with analysis in writing. In Project 3 we continue that, and add formal research writing. What differences do you see between description/narrative/personal writing (Project 1) and the informal style of writing and formal research style (Project 3) writing? How is your approach to the two different for you/How has it been different? How are they/have they been the same or similar?

Using the template in lesson one, prepare an outline in complete sentence form for each speech. This does not mean writing your entire speech, only the topic sentence for the three to five supporting points that prove your thesis. Include a thesis statement that contains the claim or prediction you will prove or illustrate (which is usually spoken); a purpose statement, indicating the response from the audience you wish to achieve (which is not usually spoken); an introduction; a body, including supporting evidence; transitions; and a conclusion. When you use outside sources in creating your speech, (required in speeches two, three, and four) include them in the speech with a short spoken citation and provide a bibliography on the outline.

Speech 3 (due in week six)

This speech requires the use of research and outside sources in creating your speech; include them in a bibliography as well as citing them in the outline and subsequent speech.

Speech 3 is a 4 to 6 minute (closer to 6 minutes than to 4) speech in which you seek to persuade the audience to take some action or change some behavior or way of thinking. This argument is based on research, not on opinion, values, or beliefs. The essence of this speech is meant to cause the audience to respond in some way.

While you may attempt to elicit an emotional response from the audience, the bulk of your argument must be based on current factual research. Describe to the audience the significance of this research evidence and explain how an analysis of it leads to the proof of your thesis.
An example might be a speech arguing that the United States should (or should not) eliminate pennies from its monetary system or replace dollar bills with dollar coins.

In your journal give your response to Citizen Kane. Is it as good as it is cracked up
to be? Does “Rosebud” give us any answers? How effective is the structure? Why
has this film been so influential? What part of Carringer’s book did you find most
interesting and why? What did you learn about filmmaking from studying this
film? Can you compare Kane to any other film you have seen before? How? Please
do not answer these questions one at a time in your journal. They simply give you
some of the topics you should address. But I do want you to discuss what you think
Welles learned from John Ford’s Stagecoach, and be specific here
