Site Teaching Modules Practice Module on Editing a B essay to an A

Site Copyright: Jeanne Curran and Susan R. Takata and Individual Authors, November 2002.
"Fair use" encouraged.

  1. Preparatory readings for module.

  2. Discussion questions.

    1. What should you immediately look for in an A essay?

      Consider sources.

    2. Where do you find sources?

      Class notes, text notes. The names your teacher mentions frequently are your teachers' primary sources.

  3. Experiential activities related to module.

  4. Self-test questions related to module.

    True or False? And explain briefly why it's true or false. (25 words or less)

    1. It doesn't really matter which sources you use.
    2. The fact that you give many specific details in evidence proves your point.
    3. One way to take up space legitimately in an essay is with definitions.
    4. Accepting full responsibility is one way of denying responsibility.
    5. If the essay is short, a single reference at the end to your course text is adequate.

  5. Conceptual linking we had in mind as we prepared the module.
