In case you missed class today, we channeled our second-grade selves by cutting our essays to shreds! Well, okay, not shreds. But scissors and tape were involved.
After you've completed Exercise 5.3 from The Curious Researcher, I want you to answer the following questions in your own blog post:
- Before completing the exercise, were you a skeptic or believer that disassembling your essay (as described in Ex. 5.3) would be beneficial?
- How did you feel about disassembling your essay? Nervous? Excited? Ambivalent? Worried? Determined?
- What was the outcome of completing this exercise? Did your essay survive mostly in-tact? Did you discover significant changes are needed? Did you have more paragraphs in your "Keep" or in your "Discard" pile? Did you realize a new way to organize your paragraphs?
- Overall, what did you learn from this exercise?
Happy blogging!
