Med 5 Cw Task 15

The following comprises TASK FIFTEEN (a). It needs to be completed by Friday 25th January.

Following your individual tutorials, you need to re-write your Independent Study first paragraph and post it up on your blog. This should include your full title (and preceding quote) that may have been refined since your meeting.

Also, the paragraph needs to engage with the keywords in the title, outlining your hypothesis/argument, and should include at least two quotes/references (with properly presented footnotes).

Then TASK FIFTEEN (b) needs to be completed by Monday 28th January.

You need to check out the revised first paragraph by your 'Blog Buddy' (from your class) and help them to re-draft their introduction (again!).

In the comments section you need to offer five www points and at least five ebi suggestions, for example...
  • Changes to spelling, punctuation, grammar, sentence construction/expression, etc.
  • Also, add anything that you think is missing and make suggestions about what else (quotes, references, elaboration, etc.) that needs to be included.
This feedback should enable you to produce a much improved introduction to start off your essay and as this is one of the crucial aspects of any piece of writing, you should end up producing something much better when you complete your 3000 words (see TASK SIXTEEN).
