Definition/Categorical Argument

THIS IS YOUR FIRST PORTFOLIO ASSIGNMENT

DEADLINE: TUE MAR 07 (11:59PM MON MAR 06)
Definition/Categorical Argument

The Definition/Categorical Argument is one of THREE Short Arguments (1000 words each) whose contents you will combine at the end of the semester to produce your Research Position Paper (3000 words).

The assignment REQUIRES a Rewrite in response to Feedback to demonstrate your participation in the recursive nature of writing (WA Department Core Value 1).

POST BOTH VERSIONS at the same time in different categories.

  • Publish your text and References into a new post.
    • Definition—Username (post to the Definition category and your Username category).
  • Copy and past your text and References into a new post at the same time:
    • Definition Rewrite—Username (post to the Definition Rewrite category and your Username category)

The first draft Definition version will never change. Your professor will provide feedback on your Definition Rewrite post. You’ll respond there by making revisions. Both versions will become part of your Portfolio.
