Discussion Board

Post #1 Analyzing details

Write at least one paragraph on each text of the texts we are reading this week, and title each section appropriately. Pose a question for your classmates on the reading. Minimum 250 words.

Written Text

Identify the thesis or main idea. Do the details fully support the thesis? Does the conclusion summarize the main message with a memorable thought? Give specific examples and cite in APA from the text.

 Texts: “Rice” by Jhumpa Lahiri, “Real Food” by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and “Us and Them” by David Sedaris (pp. 849-56)

For Your Peer Responses:

Respond to two of your peers' posts by commenting on your peer’s thesis and significant detail. Encouragement is welcome but try to do more than simply agree with their choice. Instead, ask a question, offer suggestions,  share an example, or comment on the thesis or message. Minimum 150 words

Requirements:

• For full participation credit, a minimum of three posts must occur on three or more days during the active week.
• All posts should include word count.
• Posts discussing written texts should include quotes with APA in-text citation and reference.
• See rubric for full assessment of discussion posts.
