On this day we went over an old greek inquiry called the "stasis theory" this has six different aspets: Fact, Definition, Interpretation, Consequence, Value, and Policy. McArdle says we should have all of these present in our upcoming paper the Annotated Bibliography. We also went over the criteris for the paper, which states we need 10 to 15 sources, the subject must be problematic, and around i'm guessing 10 to 12 pages as well. We wen over things to include or look at like Rhetorical gaze, Breadth, Controversy, and context.

Today we went over chapters 10 and 11 in class, these chapters talk about careful selection of sources and what questions to ask when reviewing sources such as who is the audience and why is our subject inportant and how current is our source. In chapter 11, it explains how to arrange your argument and deeply explains the purpose of the introduction and conclusion paragraph. We broke off into groups and went over an essay in our book, answer a few questions, and made suggestions. And that was our day.
