Welcome and Essential Questions

 



Welcome to Unit 6 Session 5!  This is the last session of our Writing Like a Researcher Unit.  You’ll wrap up your research paper and learn some new strategies for polishing your writing. 

Here are some essential questions we’ll consider in this session:

  • How do I unpack the context of a task to make decisions about my writing processes?
  • How do my research processes support and sustain the planning, drafting, and refinement of my writing?
  • Which rhetorical device might I use to make my writing more visible, audible, and imaginable? Why should I use this rhetorical device over another?
  • Why is it worthwhile to deliberate over the language I use to craft my own writing? What guides my language selection?
  • When should issues of correctness and registers of English impose restrictions or grant freedom for my writing?
