ENG101 Ashford University Week 5 Written Communication Discussion – Excelsior Writers | excelsiorwriters.com

Reflect: Using the critical reading methods, consider the main differences between the source you find and the text we read in class. How is the perspective different? How might the audience be different? How much time has passed and what events have happened between the two writings?

Write: Upon reflection, write at least three paragraphs (200-300 words for each paragraph) where you accomplish the following:

• Summarize the library essay you chose from the class and the essay you found in your library search.
• Make connections between the two pieces, explaining how you see the essay from your search communicating with the essay we read in class.
• Articulate any questions/curiosities/predictions/challenges you have based on the reading, and use examples from the essay to explain those.
• Incorporate a quote and/or paraphrase where appropriate with proper APA citation, including full citations at the end of your post.

Your initial post must be at least 600 words in length and posted by Day 3. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly sources, and properly cite any references as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center’s Citing Within Your Paper (Links to an external site.).
