Group Synthesis Project

For the next two days, we will write a group synthesis essay. As a group we will

1. Break down the prompt
2. Critically read each source
3. Develop a thesis and find sources to back up argument
4. Draft, revise and publish synthesis
5. Each group will then post on google docs and share link as a comment on this post. I will comment on your group essay on the blog

      Really nice job citing and interpreting sources. Only major concern is your thesis statement. Reread and notice how it is contradictory- if the united states celebrates diversity - it cannot celebrate conformity as well. they are opposite.
      Remember to use sources only to back up your argument

    Strong introduction and voice.
    Ways to Grow: instead of stating "the sources work together" as you did in 2nd to last paragraph, use those sources to support what YOU have to say.
    Dont refer to them as sources- refer to them as individual pieces or by author's name.
    Only when citing in parenthesis do you write word source.

      it clearly stated in directions that it would be graded on the blog. No where did it state I needed a printed copy.
