How does one prepare for an in-class writing assignment?
1. Collect all of ones notes and review from it
2. Review the fishbowl Friday questions and practice with those
3. Review all of the quotations we read over in class
4. Draw a time line in order to understand the plot
5. Practice on paraphrasing
6. Take down good notes
7. Look for things that symbolizes stuff in the book
8. Don’t wait until last minute
What is the difference between writing a long-term, formal essay and a timed, in-class essay?
A long-term formal essay should be better. It should have better word choices, less mistakes, and better in quality. This is because people are given more time to write a long term paper. A long term paper goes through a process. First it’s an outline, then a draft and finally the final version. Because it goes through three phases, it should be better in quality. A timed, in class essay, doesn’t go through all those phases. It is done in less time so it isn’t as good in quality, the best quotes aren’t chosen and it is a lot shorter in length.
