Often unintentional
Structure, style, syntax, vocabulary, verb tenses

Putting sources back to back without explanation or connection between them.
Cause by: Ambitious use of sources

What is your claim? Have you articulated it clearly?
How many sources did you use? Why did you choose that number?
How many times did you: quote, paraphrase, and summarize? Why did you make these choices?
What effect do you hope to have on your reader?
Looking at the Evidence (15-20 minutes)
What is your partner’s claim? Underline it. Is it articulated clearly? If not, what could be done to make it more effective?
Does the evidence support the claim?
How does the author “reshuffle” the sources? Is the order logical?
Locate the sources that were used in Carr’s text. Has the author engaged in patchwriting or boxcar writing? If so, indicate where and offer a suggestion on how to fix it.
