03.04 - Paraphrase and Quotation

In class today we were focused on learning how to use paraphrase and quotation in research. At the beginning of class, everyone chose a partner. I then gave one partner the LHS Research Guide information on paraphrase and the other partner the LHS Research Guide information on quotation. Each person read what the document had to say about paraphrase or quotation and then created a found poem on that topic (including the poet's statement explaining the choices they made).

Partners then got together and shared their poem, statement, and any other information their partner should know about paraphrase or quotation. We then went around the room and each person shared out one thing they learned from their partner. This served as a review of the material and I added clarifications or emphasis on points where necessary. Found poems were turned in at the end of the class.
