Academic Writing--Summarizing and Paraphrasing (Marked Group Work From 12/14)

*
*
Thank you, Groups 1, 3, and 4 for submitting the results of your in-class group projects that you did in-class on December 14.

We did this particular group project for two reasons:

1. Practice for you.

2. A platform for me to see what you know and what you need to learn yet, so that we can finish up the semester with the solid summarizing and paraphrasing skills you will for next semester, when you will be writing 5- or 6-paragraph persuasive essays.

I have marked each group's work, using Microsoft Word Markup.

I have scanned images of these marked papers and posted them below. I suggest that you study all three papers and my remarks, given that this material will be on your final exam.
