  1. Reading Quiz BA 5: Integrating & Evaluating Quotations Avoiding Plagiarism PTIC Exercise Group Practice – Identifying purpose Individual Practice – Identifying Potential Quotations Final Announcements For Today:

  2. Next Class: YOU WILL NEED TO BRING IN 1 COPY OF YOUR ROUGH DRAFT OF DRAFT 1.1. We will be spending the class work-shopping them together. FAILURE TO BRING IN YOUR ROUGH DRAFT WILL RESULT IN A FAILING CLASS PARTICIPATION GRADE FOR MONDAY. And a very boring reading exercise for you. Announcements:

  3. A good working thesis statement. (If your BA 4 has been graded make the suggested revisions and include your revised thesis statement). The quotes you intend to use from your secondary sources and your primary source. (If your BA 5 has been graded make the suggested revisions and include your revised quotation/summary/paraphrase choices). At least 500 words of a rough beginning of your paper. Show us a rough introduction and some rough paragraphs that show how you plan to organize your paper and explain and support your thesis statement. What should be in your draft for next Class?:

  4. Use only the specific parts of a sentence or paragraph that you need. Do not use quotations that are more than four lines long. A quoted sentence should never stand by itself. Incorporate a quote into the flow of your own sentence. Introduce the quotation with a signal phrase. Or use a signal phrase in the middle (or even the end). When you need to exclude some words from a direct quotation, use ellipsis points. Use brackets to add or substitute words. Integrating quotations:

  5. DO NOT change the meaning of a quote just so that you can use it in your paper. • DO NOT use too many quotes in your paper. In a 1200 word paper you will have about 3 rhetorical devices and 2 – 3 examples of each device. Your example can be a paraphrase or a quotation. Doing either of these things in Draft 1.1 will earn you a bad grade. Integrating quotations:

  6. Acknowledge Concludes Emphasizes Replies Advises Concurs Expresses Reports Agrees Confirms Interprets Responds Allows Criticizes Lists Reveals Answers Declares Objects Says Asserts Describes Observes States Believes Disagrees Offers Suggests Charges Discusses Opposes Thinks Claims Disputes Remarks Writes Signal verbs (15b):

  7. Contrary to popular perception, Coontz explains, “there have been several times and places when cohabitation, out-of-wedlock births, or nonmarital sex were more widespread than they are today” (par. 2). • Where is the signal verb? • When author’s name is in the sentence, don’t include author in parenthetical citation Quotation example:

  8. Despite contemporary outcries vying for traditional marriage, “in ancient Rome . . . the difference between cohabitation and legal marriage was entirely subjective” (Coontz, par. 3). • Quotation inserted naturally into sentence • Ellipses in middle of quote to note omitted words: … replaces “for example” • Include author’s name in parenthetical citation when not in sentence Quotation example:

  9. Discussing the common misconceptions she deals with in her work, Coontz says “[she is] more than a little bemused when people talk about the traditional sanctity of the Christian wedding ceremony” (par. 3). • Brackets indicate that writer has changed words in the quotation • Change “I am” to “she is” in order for the quote to flow smoothly and be grammatically correct Quotation Example:

  10. Parenthetical/In-Text Citation • Author’s name should be either in sentence or in parenthetical citation • Include paragraph number • Parenthetical citation goes between quotation marks and closing punctuation • Cite paragraph numbers in parenthetical citations for these articles • “…” (Coontz, par. 4). Citation Basics:

  11. See examples on the handout. • **If it wasn’t your original thought, cite it** • Use proper in-text citations and an MLA works cited. • For BA 5 use the format from 18.b.16 for your in-text citations. i.e.: (Coontz, par. 13) • You will only be using the formats from 18.b.1 or .2 for your in-text citations • You will find the MLA works cited at the end of your article (I have very nicely put it there for you, but you still have to include it in your work). • Here is the MLA citation if you are using Coontz: Coontz, Stephanie. “The World Historical Transformation of Marriage.” Journal of Marriage and Family 66.4 (2004): 974-979. Web. 9 Sept 10. • There are two errors in the citation of the Malcom X speech. They are pretty obvious, you must fix them on your own works cited. Avoiding Plagiarism:

  12. Working thesis at top • Copy 5-8 quotes from primary source that you plan to use • For each one, explain: • Where will this quotation fit in your organization?  • How does it further and/or support your analysis? (You must say why and how it supports your analysis, not just that it does) • Will you use it as a quotation or paraphrase the selection, and why? • Include parenthetical citations and works cited Brief Assignment 5: Integrating and Evaluating Quotations

  13. P – Purpose • What is the author’s purpose? • T – Topic • What is the topic of the text? • I – Issue • What question is the article trying to answer? • What issue is he or she trying to solve? • C – Conclusion. • What is the answer to that question? • What is the solution to that issue? • Issue + conclusion = thesis of the text Reading comprehension PTIC:

  14. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKpZ_6BSDhU • P? • T? • I? • C? • Issue + conclusion = thesis of the text • So what is the thesis of the commercial? PTIC Full Group Practice:

  15. Small groups according to article • PTIC your article as a group • Then individually: • Copy three instances in which you see the author introducing a quotation smoothly • Then introduce three quotations from the article as you would in Draft 1.1. Include parenthetical citation. • Each person will turn in their own sheet • Group answers should all be the same Small group practice:

  16. Read EB Ch 3 • Next week: Draft 1.1 Workshop • No reading quiz • Bring pre-writing and rough draft and sources to workshop next week For next week:
