This week's Article of the Week

If you did not complete Practice Sentences A, B, and C, please do so now and send them to me, via email or via blog comment. Either way, I will be stationed at my computer sending feedback. If you're sending email and there's no subject line, I'm not going to open it.

It's time for a reset on the article of the week. Too many of you didn't do it, and it hurt your grades. Others of you stated that you saw the value of reading and annotating, but not of the reflections.

So, from now on, I will give everyone the article of the week on Monday. You will have the week to read and annotate it (we will periodically learn new annotating techniques, and use them while reading the article of the week.) Because you are only reading and annotating, we will no longer devote a class period to it.  The article of the week will be due the following Monday.

This week, while reading, please pick four sentences you had difficulty understanding and paraphrase them.

We will begin working on the article, "You Love Your iPhone. Literally," today.  It is due at the beginning of class on Tuesday, October 11 (because of Columbus Day). Please remember that these are 15% of your grade.
