You can now view, download, and print the Rubric for Essay #1. I have also included a helpful handout that offers some general tips and expectations of academic writing.
For the next class meeting, this upcoming Monday, please have read the following excerpt from the Bedford Handbook text: pages 118-129. This section, Section 6, deals with how one must evaluate another's argument for, as the text states, "logic and fairness" (Hacker 118).
Be sure to read this section closely, looking for key terms and headings as you make your way through the text. Much like there are many Rhetorical Devices which help us formulate and structure our writing, there are numerous aspects of writing (especially expository and argumentative writing) that demand to be evaluated for rationality, accuracy, and so on. We will be doing Exercise 6-1 in class, so you may wish to look over this closely before we meet as well.
Enjoy your weekend. And good luck in writing your rough drafts!
