1.  The author suggests a “road map” paragraph in the introduction of the paper.  The author then describes how the main body of the paper should develop and defend your argument.  So, should each paragraph be devoted to a single source that develops and defends that argument?

2.  The author tells us in the conclusion to tell the readers how their understanding of the topic has been changed for the better.  How can the author of a paper speak for its readers?

3.  What would the author define as jargon?

    I would like to second at least an online conversation on:

    3. What would the author define as jargon?

    Questions about language in formal writing do overlap with questions of permissible representations of culture and the self, but that may be beyond the scope of our class (in fact, I’m pretty sure it’s too big a tangent).
