  1. Find an argument piece and analyze it using the argument analysis guidelines page of this blog. Post a link to the piece and your analysis on your home page (not here) - if there is a picture that goes along with the piece, you may want to include that as well. See my home page for possible sources.
  2. Read They Say, I Say chapter 3, The Art of Quoting.  Find one article/source that you would like to use for your team's argument (and your individual essay) and use one of the templates to introduce a quote from the article and one template to explain a quote from the article. Post under the annotated bibliography page - TYPE THE DATE & A TITLE! To find your article you can use the ibistro knowledge portal or other newspapers or journals.
