Draft 1.1 and Preparing for Conference


English 101: Introduction to College Writing – Spring 2013
Draft 1.1: revising your critical interpretive essay and getting ready for our conference

1.     Using your writing from class today and previous assignments, discussions, and group work, revise your critical interpretive draft.

2.     As you work, remember that you’re writing to communicate, so you should shape your writing by making explicit connections to the text and the points you are making, explaining your ideas and where they come from, and making sure that your purpose reflects your interpretation of the text (and does not simply restate Sedaris’ purpose.)

3.      Bring a COMPLETE copy of your essay (printed) to your conference time. Also bring two to three questions that we can focus on during your conference.
