Assignment #1: Academic Summary
This quarter you will write a researched, academic essay. This step is a multi-part process, and the Academic Summary is the first part.
Below you will find a list of essays, all of which can be found in our text book. These essays cover a wide variety of disciplines, and will serve as a spring board to your research this quarter. Your job is to pick ONE essay, read it, and compose a brief (no more than one page) academic summary. In your summary, you MUST give the title of the article, and the author's name. You may comment on their credentials if you would like, but it is not required. Some other aspects you can comment on include:
-The rhetorical situation
-The article's claims
Keep in mind that this article summary will be the foundation of your research through the quarter, so be sure you pick an article that interests you. Some other guidelines to keep in mind:
-Do not give your personal opinion (no "I" in this paper)
-Use good transitions as you move from point to point
-Be sure your final sentence brings closure to the summary.
-Use 12 point font, typed and double spaced.
