*** Page numbers indicated in parentheses and are taken from the second edition of the book
 Week 6:
 Focus: The Critical Review, Reflection and Workshopping
 **We will begin workshopping the rhetorical analysis at the end of the week.
 **We’re also beginning our study of the Critical Review.
 **As per the announcement, you might decide to write your first reflection on your rhetorical analysis (you have to write two of these over the course of the semester; you choose which papers)
 Read:
 The prompt for the Critical Review, of course.
 Begin reading Part 1 of They Say, I Say (as you begin revising, you may find these sections helpful). When you write your reflection, you will need to highlight readings/handouts/lectures that you read/used/found helpful as you draft and revise your papers – I don’t “check” your reading, but I do ask you to reflect thoroughly on the materials you read in preparation for a paper (see prompt for Reflections).
 Part 1:
Section 1: “They Say: Starting with What Others Are Saying” (19)
Section 2: “Her Point Is: The Art of Summarizing” (30)
 What’s due next week:
  1. Reflection #1 (again, IF you choose to write a reflection on Paper 1; you may elect to write your first reflective piece on Paper 2): 9/30
  2. Workshop Responses, Round 1: Sun, 10/06
