10.31 - TED Talk Analysis - Rough Draft (cont'd)

In class today everyone needed more time to work on writing their rough drafts from their TED Talk analysis. People had the class today to work on this. I reviewed the process for this work today and then met individually with people to answer questions and talk about how to approach writing different paragraphs. If people were not yet at the point of writing their rough draft, the goal was to get there and have the rough draft complete for Monday so we can do a peer review. 

Some people were also working on final quarter 1 assignments which will be due today. I will be accepting work via Google Drive until midnight tonight.

The steps in which this work should be completed are as follows:


Notes on the talk
SOAPS note sheet
Outline for paragraphs 1-5
Find an article related to their talk
Outline paragraph 6
Rough Draft

The focus for today's work was on using the outlines that people had created to continue writing their rough draft of the paper.

Handouts:
TED Talk Analysis assignment
TED Talk Notesheet

SOAPS Notesheet
Analysis Outline 

Homework:

Continue working on the rough draft of your paper based on the outline you created.
Everyone should have a completed rough draft ready for peer review on Monday.
