Tinberg and Berger have changed my opinion on the definition on text by showing there are new ways to let out text. There is visual publicities that have huge meaning to them such as a huge essay would. The difference is instead of a bunch of words it like a image that brings out sort of emotions and a catchy slogan. The new definition of text doesn't necessarily have to be just a huge essay you could see images and have a huge meaning symbolizing it. Also text and culture creates different conversations because they have different customs of saying things and different language. Different slangs, people from different culture can be text. Literally anything can be considered a text as long as you have a different understanding of it.

influence ideas  more than just said  modern historical consequences  publicity images  stimulates imagination  the publicity image belongs to the moment  advertisements  continually renewed up-to-date  never speak of the present  memories correspond with images  publicity  emotions  ethos, pathos, logos  the free world "A person may notice a particular image or piece of information because it corresponds to some particular interest he has."(7). This quote is saying that a lot of the reasons people choose certain images to portray the message they are trying to send out is something anyone can relate to. If you can relate to it you'll pay attention that's the key.  "Publicity is the culture of the consumer society." (140). Publicity is key in order to spread the word. When publicizing something it is important to put it everywhere in order to be seen.  "It is true that in pu...

Proofreading to me is like when you are reading a writing and you see if there are any mistake in the writing. You could look for grammar mistakes, punctuation mistakes, and etc. Proofreading can also involve fixing transitions and the flow of your writing. In writing workshops it is the writers job to proofread and the readers job to just revise and suggest things to change in your writing.

Analyzing the appeals in a research Argument list of major premises  that inform argument agree or disagree  Analyze visual rhetoric  Discussion's with classmates  Ethos, Pathos, Logos  Advertisements  Ethi Emotiona Reflect on what draws attention  What emotions are evoked because of certain ads what draws attention reading as a writer rhetoric analysis  make marks to your own understanding  identify situations writers purpose writers audience type, genre, style  A lot of writers use symbols or images to create some kind of representation or meaning. So its important as readers to know hoe to create the meaning on our own. "To examine the strategies you can use to understand how image and texts convey meaning."(237). Sometimes the symbols create an idea that they are trying to put out for people to understand the reason for the advertisements. They use ethos, pathos, and logos for it to be relatable to people....

Turning point in narratives  most things that stick with people key ideas in narratives  Academic writing  Collaborative  peer editing  Revising, making changes to a paper to make it better than it was before  Editing is different because  when you edit you it involves minor changes  Composition pyramid  top {Situation, Issue, Thesis, Audience} Middle {Organization, Effective use of sources to the thesis}  Bottom {Style and Grammar}  Ask questions to see if you can get full understanding of what writer was trying to describe.  When reading peers writing focus on top of the pyramid Different stages of writing  different drafts  Writing is more than just words on a paper saying something about irrelevant subjects. But in order for there to be a good essay learning the process of writing is very important. For example,"Writing is a process, and revising is an integral part of that process. Your best ...

After the past 4 weeks I feel that I have gotten a bigger understanding of how to write a better essay. By reading the book They say, I say, I learned about how to use quotations, and how to introduce them. I also learned that texts are very important to a reader because it can give certain emotions that a person can relate to their personal experiences. I learned that expressing the relevance is as important as inserting the quote that way you are not just throwing random quotes into a paragraph. I think the essay I wrote, my first essay in a while actually, is decent. I feel like it could be better but I personally don't know how to write a good essay about my personal self and relate it to anything because I think it hard for me to try and relate to someone or something else. But after getting with my group and reading their narratives and getting feedback from them it really helped me fix my essay, but I do think it could use some improvement. Considering the fact that this i...

I feel like my draft is not very good. I think it could use a lot of work, my transitions aren't as smooth as the could be. Also I think I could use some help explaining how I want to say this things I am trying to express a little better. Also I could use some help on Breaking down my paragraphs and adding better vocabulary. Another thing is I think I sound very repetitive in each paragraph. So I could use some pointers from my group to help express more of my point of what I'm trying to say in my draft.

I'm looking forward to hearing the different ideas that my group comes up with when reading the book. I would like to hear their thoughts and opinions and how they see the story though their own eyes compared to mine. I think what might be challenging is being on the same page as my own group, like I hope we are all reading and working together so that we can fully understand what is going on in the book and we all are doing the equal amount of work.

For my draft I was trying to gather up ideas of what I would write. I plotted down ideas of my opinions and what interested me to write about. I think for this essay I would like to focus on how to arrange my essay in a clear way, to make it flow more. I want to leave how not have my essay just all over the place. I would like to learn a new way to come up with good transitions and how not to be so repetitive.

Unforgettable childhood coming of age  Tehran Big loving family  Iranian Revolution public and private life in a political plague growing up learning who you are  changes in life and self changing for the better  out growing negativity gaining your own voice  Maybe she learns her real self and what she wants to be  what career she wants to go into  To annotate my article I am going to use sticky notes. On the sticky notes I will write at least 3 to 5 sentences to sum up what that page is about. Doing this will help me because if I have to go back and find a key event the sentences will help remind me where that event took place. I will also write down key quotes that stood out to me on the sticky notes.

Significant Experiences : I'm more of a passive reader  I just read what is assigned to get over with it  I don't see the deep meaning  don't see the symbolic meaning of a object true meaning of symbols created by the authors Freire is experiences  2.

Are we going to get pointers and help from you professor Dan? How much time will we go through this essay and the amount of time until the deadline for the final writing? I am a little nervous about writing this essay which the draft is due Thursday because essays are not my strong points in my opinion.

Introduction:  How we can improve our writing  The important of quoting  Framing quotes  The relevance of texts Clarifying the text for audience How to answer the "so what?" and "who cares?" Chapter #3 Quote exact words Quotations are orphans Find the right place for them to fit in and explain quotes Frame every quote Quotation sandwich Introduce the quote (bread) explain the relevance of quote (bread) actual quote (“meats”) Better too overly explain quotes then just to leave the quotation dangling Quoting is a very crucial step in writing summaries because it shows that you're unbiased and fully understood what you have read. “Quoting someone else's words gives a tremendous amount of credibility to your summary and helps ensure that its fair and accurate”(43). Expanding your thought with a quote present in a book helps a summary be less boring. If you result back to credit what the book says it shows that you found so...
