Easing into Synthesis
- Read pages 69-74 in your books tonight.
- Also, looking at the types of support section that begins on page 62, I’d like you to blog examples of two types of support. Comb the newspaper, slate.com, etc for examples of the different types of support noted in our text. Post two examples that you find, citing where you found each one. For each example, explain what type of source use it is and how the source is being used in the text and to what effect.
Among other things in class tomorrow, we will do the assignment in the book that runs from page 66-68. This is important, as we said in class, because the AP test will have some questions concerning the meaning and use of footnotes and I’d like you to think about them.
