ENG 121 Week Three Journal - Paraphrasing
|
ENG 121 Week Three Journal - Paraphrasing Journal Entry - Paraphrasing. This week, you continue writing your journal entries. This journal is designed to give you practice in academic writing, which is very different from the personal essay writing that you have been practicing. Academic writing entails making a point and supporting that point with information from a reputable source. There are three ways to support a point with information from a source: quoting, paraphrasing, or summarizing. This week, you will practice paraphrasing a source and citing that source in your journal entry. Please be sure to read and review the “Example Journal Entry – Paraphrasing” document,which describes how to integrate quotations. Please note that the journal assignment should not be confused with a personal journal. This activity requires organization, effective stylistics and grammar, and proper source incorporation. It is not a free-writing or reflective writing exercise. Both of the personal essays we have read this week, “How to Say Nothing in 500 Words” and “Life Under the Chief Doublespeak Officer,” use narrative and/or descriptive elements (sections 6.3 and 6.4 in the text), and each has a clear purpose. Choose one of the essays assigned this week to write about. In 250 to 500 words: 1. State the purpose of the essay.2. Explain why you think that literary element is used well by the writer. 3. Incorporate a paraphrase from the essay. Cite the essay. 4. Explain how you plan to use the literary element in your personal essay. 5. Proofread your work for errors in grammar, mechanics, and style. 6. Provide a reference for the essay you paraphrase. Refer to the Ashford Writing Center’sCitation and Reference Guide for guidelines on citing sources in APA style. 7. Perform a word count check to make sure the journal is 250 to 500 words in length. 8. Save the document as a Microsoft Word or compatible .doc or .docx file.
