One topic that went quite unexplored during the Socratic Seminars was how we all individually incorporated quotes seamlessly into our essays. As a result, I would like point out that there are multiple ways to seamlessly fit quotes into sentences, such as informing the reader about how the character feels about the event, what exactly the character is talking about, and beginning the sentence containing the quote with paraphrasing. For example, I included as an example in my essay, "Secondly, Ashleigh questions her father's plan on page 4 of Ashes, ' "That's a lot of money. What if Mom finds out?" ' " I inform the reader as to how Ashleigh is feeling about her father's plan. It's simple for the reader to see that Ashleigh is skeptical about
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is one of the most interesting book that our school assigned. It isn’t like The Great Gatsby’s tough love, isn’t like Hamlet’s tragedy, it is a unique, dark mysterious murder story. It got my interest even since I opened my book, and I could not put it down. Not everyone has multi personality like Dr. Jekyll, people like that simply attracts me. I believe there are people who has mental disorders in our school also, those who are disabled should be taken good care also.
What is a possible solution? Properly introducing the subject leads the reader to understand the context, and including an explanation of the quote afterward, leads the reader to understand how they should think or feel about the subject later.
Correspondingly, another one of my strengths in writing would be in lead-ins, as seen in the Crucible paper. In this paper, I used strong lead-ins to connect to the quote. To show that Mary wanted to accuse Proctor, I used the lead-in,” Mary, not wanting to hang, turns on Proctor, inaccurately repeating what he said to her during the night”. This shows good lead-ins because it shows how the quote relates to the topic. Moreover, I also used lead-ins to show who was talking, what they were doing, and where the quote was taking place.
Integrate the quotation into the passage as if the passage is a sentence in your research paper. Include appropriate transitions as well as APA-formatted in-text citations and reference. Delete elements of the passage or quotation as needed.
When writing a paper that involves research you can under and over cite. It is an annoyance when you are reading a paper and someone improperly drops a quote on you, totally wrecking your train of thought. Kyle D. Stedman states that one of the fundamental ideas of rhetoric is that whomever is using it should shape what they do based on what they want it to inspire, where they're publishing it , and what they know about their audience. When integrating sources you should slowly ease your audience into it, maybe by use of an introduction. Doing this shows your audience there is a quote coming, where it is coming from, and how to interpret it. Something people should not do it to start or end a paragraph with a quote, doing
If you lead the quote in, it will give your readers some background as to why you're going to be using this quote and how it could help prove your argument. It is also important to carefully think about how you integrate quoted material into your essays. If you simply just place the quote anywhere, your readers will think that you don’t know what you're doing and might not understand how the quote relates to your argument. When you properly integrate your quote into your essay, readers know exactly what the purpose of the quote is and how it relates to your argument. The Susan Bordo passage changed significantly between the two pages. On page 42, it seems as if the quote was just stuck in there for no reason. It was out of place and made it very confusing for the reader to even know what was going on in the quote and how it related at all to the argument. In contrast, the passage on page 44 “framed” the quote by giving plenty of background, introducing it, and then explaining how it related to the argument, making it much easier to follow along and understand the writer’s objective with the quote in relation to the argument. By “framing” the quote, it makes it easier to understand and connect the dots of the argument, making it much clearer to the reader as to what is going
Anaphora: When you use an anaphora in your text it plays very well with the readers and the audience. the audience or reader will anticipate the next line which allows them to almost participate and feel part of your writing.
On the upcoming block day we will have a Socratic Seminar in which we discuss the chapters in To Kill a Mockingbird that deal with Tom Robinson’s trial and its aftermath.

The Westing Game is a mystery novel written by Ellen Raskin and published by Dutton in 1978. "The Westing Game" was published, although, author Ellen Raskin began work on it in 1976. The book is most likely written around the same time as it was published. I predicted The Westing Game was written in 1976 because the US celebration was held that year, fireworks and famous patriotic songs are important to the plot of the story.
Example Passage 1 Integrate the quotation into the passage as if the passage is a sentence in your research paper. Include appropriate transitions as well as APA-formatted in-text citations and reference. Delete elements of the passage or quotation as needed. · Passage: Some might argue that traditional good looks are not an indication of a person's real attractiveness. · Quotation: "The philosophical dimension of beauty does not depend on the limits of the physical world; true beauty far exceeds our earthly bounds." · Reference: Roger McMichaels. A Deeper Look at Beauty. New York: Graymark, 1995. The quoted material is taken from page 22. Integrated passage: The concept of interpersonal attractiveness is highly subjective, with cultural influences and private preferences playing a significant role. Some might argue that traditional good looks are not an indication of a person's real attractiveness, a sentiment captured eloquently by Roger McMichaels, author of A Deeper Look at Beauty, when he observed that "the philosophical dimension of beauty does not depend on the limits of the physical world; true beauty far exceeds our earthly bounds" (1995). The crux of McMichaels statement is that, while beauty can obviously be based on physical appearance, a person who is beautiful in the true sense of the world possesses far more valuable qualities.

By putting the information from your research into your own words, you can show that you have a deeper knowledge of the material. Furthermore, papers overloaded with quotations may distract your instructor from your own ideas and writing. Use a quotation from a source only when there is absolutely no better way to present the information. A well-written paper balances quotations and paraphrases with your own interpretation of the research.
The first 100 days in the White House are always a tell tale sign of what kind of president the United States would have for the next four years. President Donald Trump’s 100 days in office could be seen as very successful to some and very concerning for others. However, President Trump is made sure in his first 100 days that he owned up to all of the promises he made to Americans all around the country during election tours. While Trump was campaigning during the election he made it very clear that he was no ordinary candidate and that he did not under no circumstance did not want to be like President Obama if he was elected into office. Since his campaigning days, it seems like Trump has done just that to ensure his style of running the
There has been a drastic change in the way we perceive the world and this can alter the way we see each other. We tend to jump onto a bandwagon because it seems easiest or because of one personal scenario. This is one of the main causes for prejudice and injustice. How a person reacts to being oppressed may bring out another side of them, but this side is their true self. This reaction speaks of his or her morals, ethics, and values. To these people, all the perpetrators appear the same, but it is known that while some may easily go along with it, some may choose to stand above it all. The concepts referenced to earlier will be soon elaborated on in further analysis as this essay goes on.
Socrates argues that all evil is born out of ignorance. According to Socrates, evil or wrongdoing is the result of ignorance. Socrates assumed that nobody willingly opts to do wrong or evil things. He says that doing wrong always injured the wrongdoer and that no one seeks to carry harm upon themselves. The Socratic philosophy reveals that is not normal for an individual to want to do wrong on the grounds that their perception for self-interest keeps them from doing as such.
Ethics based leadership theories are primarily concerned with addressing three concerns. The first concern is the intent of individuals, regardless whether they are managers or just team members of an organization. The second issue involves the selection of proper means for doing things and the last concern surrounds the selection of proper ends. Ethics-based leadership has five key models; the basic integrity model of the virtuous leader, the ethical leader as a moral manager, the ethical leader as an authentic leader, the ethical leader as a spiritual mentor to followers, clients and constituents, and the ethical leader as a transforming agent of change for the common good.
