In order to be a successful writer, one must be able to thoroughly understand and incorporate a wide variety of sources into their writing. Outcome 2 requires the ability to analyze complex texts and sources, and then synthesize them into a coherent and complete essay. The sources should support the ideas being expressed, and it should be evident that the writing benefits from their inclusion. In addition, a variety of pieces of evidence should be used to represent a more broad scale of sources. Another important part of outcome 2 is something I intentionally did not do in the Short Assignment 3 (which is the paper I chose to show my understanding of the outcome). It is necessary to document sources used in an appropriate format. I would just …show more content…
The Short Assignment 3 – Plagiarism Synthesis does an excellent job of showcasing how effective using sources can be. After this assignment, I truly have a newly discovered appreciation for using sources in my writing! I had a lot of fun writing this paper, mainly because I felt very rebellious, but also because it turned out exactly how I envisioned it, which was quite satisfying. What better way to make a statement about plagiarism by plagiarizing your essay on the topic, as well as using sources that do the exact same thing? In order to successfully execute my creative vision, I had to make sure I really understood the two texts that I was pulling quotes from, and how they differed from each other. I then went through both Lethem’s and Shields’ essays and highlighted anything that stood out to me as important or interesting. As I began writing my paper, I tried to find gaps that I could fill with a highlighted fragment from one or both texts that incorporated well into the current thought I was trying to communicate. Reading through my paper now, it’s pretty difficult to separate the parts that came directly from me, and the ones that I acquired from the texts. While revising this paper, I didn’t mess with the wording very much, but I did edit areas for clarity, and added a few sentences explaining

This unit does not introduce much new material. Instead, we expect you to integrate technical and theoretical knowledge acquired from study across your degree. We refer to two frameworks that may support you in carrying out this integration:
A person communicate different variety of ways, both verbally and non-verbally. Primates and other animals have been communicating without the use of language since long before humans invented verbal communication.

As part of my Business Innovation Development Project Unit, I had the opportunity to put myself into group with my friends or people I believed I could work well with. In the first stages of our group we all tried to get to know each other more through analysing personality and learning types’ test that we previously undertook. I realise we were going through the normal stages of the team formation in particular forming and norming (Tuckman, 1965). In my assignment group we had all Belbin team roles which helped us perform well throughout our project and also helped us to identify other team members’ behavioural strengths and weaknesses. During the initial stages of the group getting together I believed it was
To complete Part two, read the following two essays linked here and discuss how the ideas presented in each have impacted your own high school and/or post-high school experiences, here at TTU or elsewhere. You’ll be writing a brief argument that synthesizes the content of these two sources in support of your discussion. The St. Martin's Handbook: Chapter 12f, "Synthesizing Sources" will help you with strategies for synthesizing your sources.
By incorporating valid sources my essay would be able to come to life while giving the reader solid evidence of what I was trying to say. Having direct quotes and paraphrasing professionals that have done research strengthen my side of the argument. The only challenge that came into play was where and how to incorporate my sources. You don’t want to just drop a quote anywhere. You want to make sure that it flows with your own words and you’re able to show it proves a

Outcome Two is to able to utilize information in different sources to help support one’s argument within their paper. The author must be able to find helpful and reliable sources that address the same topics and issues of their paper. They must also know how to break down the text and only use evidence that will strengthen their point. The Outcome is the ability to use and understand information that can be later used as evidence.
First, when I use citation, I had to mention the source of the information, such as author and published date, at the end of the sentence. Without mentioning, it became a plagiarism. Secondly, throughput the whole essay, the border of paraphrase and summary was not specified. Since, I had used summary and quotation rather than paraphrase frequently, I guess I did not understand these differences clearly. Thirdly, in this essay, most of the time, I used the sources only from the designated books without considering other different materials, thus I should researched more to get reliable information. In addition, in the second body paragraph, I had to assess the consequences of the comparison and utter my consideration in the original words. However, throughout the second paragraph, what I did was rewriting others ideas. In other words, I just wrote the existing information by replacing similar

I have completed the Final Test for this course. I reviewed and studied all the chapters, went over my previous quizzes and refreshed my memory by reading the major key learning from each chapter. I see that I am 3% away from a C in your course. Is there anything I can do before Sunday that can possible help me receive at least a “C”. I would greatly appreciate if you grant me this opportunity to improve my grade.
You command of using information from multiple sources was also demonstrated in your piece. When you are researching a particular topic, it can be a large task to read through all of the sources of information and find the common themes to include in your writing. Pulling in multiple sources helps to support your topic as well.
I went to a school called Milton Hershey School located in Hershey, PA. Milton Hershey School is a private/boarding school. High school experiences for me included writing a research paper, personal statement and writing about my hero. My strength in the writing program was that I spent time on it and put in a lot of knowledge into it. Students were required to do presentations/essays and present to the class very often. They wanted us to practice our public speaking. I would say this is why I am very good at public speaking and speaking in general.
