Reading Assignments:
Writing Assignments:
JE4: Read Envision Chapter 5 (Text and Website). Read pp. 217-237 in
WRAC. Based on the WRAC readings, do the Argument Synthesis on pp.
213-14, consulting the rest of the section (pp. 211-17) and earlier
excerpts in WRAC (pp. 41-47 and pp. 176-82) as directed.
JE5: Read pp. 521-36 in WRAC. Read Envision Chapter 4 (Text and
Website), then do Writing Project 2 on p. 134 on the topic you have
tentatively chosen for your researched argument. Note: Classwide
readings for the rest of the term from WRAC will focus on
consumerism (for example, advertising and mall culture), education
(for example, legacy admissions and sleep deprivation), and gender
roles (for example, marriage, family and Cinderella retellings). Your
researched argument topic should intersect with one of these broad
areas. You may, as a result, want to read ahead in WRAC to Chapters
8, 10, and/or 12, assigned later in the term.
JE6: Read pp. 551-67 in WRAC. Read Envision Chapter 6 (Text and
Website), then do Writing Project 2 on p. 217, building on and refining
the research proposal you developed in JE5 and RP5.
