Each of my body paragraphs in this paper is a Barcley’s formula paragraph. Before learning what this was, my paragraphs and quotes were not very integrated with everything else. I connect Haas’s, Nair and Nair’s, and the IMRAD Cheat Sheet’s ideas to Gee’s building tasks. I’ve learned to give less of an explanation, which I used to do to take up space, and instead, analyze and explain. An example of this is in my paragraph about reading rhetorically. I give a quick summary of Haas and how she followed Eliza in her journey and then connected it to scientific Discourse. I also then connected Haa’s work to Nair and Nair’s work about writing a scientific paper. I am adding to their ideas as well by connecting them to examples in the actual discourse. A lot of my quotes have signal phrases, but I do have some embedded quotes like this one from Haas, “In her article, she writes about the journey of a college student, Eliza, through her reading and writing skills of scientific texts. Hass develops the idea of rhetorical reading and develops the idea of a rhetorical frame, “Elements of the rhetorical frame include participants, their relationships and motives, and several layers of context” (Hass 48). ” I still find this concept a bit harder because I don’t want it to sound forced. I usually start my quotes off with ___ stated or some type of variation. A lot of my paper was confirming the aspects of Scientific Discourse using the authors as supporting evidence.
