Hello alls,
Just a reminder: you have another blog post due tonight at midnight. This is a simple one: I just want you to link us to 5 background sources you've looked at that somehow inform your topic. Give a brief rhetorical situation for each one--nothing fancy. If you weren't in class today, contact me and we'll work out what you can do with this. If you have any questions let me know.
Happy researching!

2 Blog Prompts
Hello class,
Your prompt for TONIGHT is to reflect on the RA process--how did it go? What went well? What didn't go well? What would you change if you could redo the process? What do you think could the program, or myself, be doing better to help you? How did it compare to the OpEd process? Reflect on these questions and your overall feelings on the RA process.
Your blog prompt for TOMORROW (that's right, you need to post it by midnight on WEDNESDAY) is to post one, or a few, potential Issues Paper topics. You can post one topic and brainstorm about it in detail, or two or three potential topics. You must, however, come up with 2-3 potential RESEARCH QUESTIONS for each potential topic--these will guide your research as you begin to immerse yourself in the library on Thursday.
Great job on the RAs! See you all on Thursday.

Blog Prompt: Figurative Language
Hello class,
Prompt for tonight's post: from the article you're analyzing for the RA, pick out a figure of language of some sort (from what we talked in class today, or from the reading, or whatever--metaphor, alliteration, hyperbole, over/understatement, symbol, etc.) and analyze it. Why did the author choose this particular form of language? What effect does it have on his audience? Etc.
