1. Where are you already working pretty well with Gee’s concepts? How, specifically, will you apply that more solid engagement to a specific paragraph that is not yet working so effectively with Gee (or Haas, or another text in play)?

Looking at my peer’s comments I am doing pretty well with Gee’s concepts in my second paragraph where I talk about identities. I could use my knowledge in the identities paragraph to apply in my fifth paragraph more solid engagement.

  1. Where are you doing a pretty good job bringing in pieces of language to illustrate or support a point you’re making about how science Discourse works? Why is that working well? (Try to say what you’re doing that’s working!)

I think I am doing a good job integrating the quotes that I have been using a textual evidence. On the top of page 3. My peers made comments that they think my quote interaction in this section is well done.

  1. Turn to a paragraph that is not working so effectively with material from your artifacts. What do you need in that paragraph if it’s to become more effective?

In paragraph four my peers and I think there could be more of an analysis of the second quote that I used. I think adding more of a analysis will make it easier for the reader to comprehend the idea I am trying to get across in this paragraph.

  1. Write 2-3 sentences that capture what you believe your analysis tells us about science Discourse. These sentences will help you identify your perspective on how science Discourse works, which will help you revise your introduction and possibly the conclusion!

In a science Discourse, the little things that are there are to help you succeed. When you are writing a scientific paper the little things that some of us don’t even second guess anymore because we are so used to using them, those things help us become immersed in the scientific Discourse.
