Short Writing Exercise #2: Quoting
Value: 5%
Due Date: Wednesday, March 3
Topic: Social Media and Privacy
Purpose:Short writing exercises can be thought of as assignments to help you with your final project. Please consider picking articles/sources that relate to your final project. It may require editing, but you may use your writing in your final project.Directions: According to Graff and Birkenstein (2014), another essential skill in academic writing is quoting. It’s not enough to provide the quote and its citation. You must ensure it fits within the conversation you are creating. Be sure to introduce the quote, explain what it means, and describe how it relates to your position, perspective, or point of view. Now revisit your annotated bibliography you completed last week, Week 4. Find three quotesthat you might use in your course paper –one quote from each of three different sources. Write a short paragraph for each quote and be sure to do each of the following: •Explain what the quote means. •Indicate how the quote relates to your position, perspective, or point of view. •In a short paragraph at the end of the document, explain the moves/templates you used to contextualize your quotes. Focus on chapter 3 as you engage in this exercise/short assignment. You can use the Templates for Introducing Quotations (p. 46) and Explaining Quotations (pp. 46-47).
