The document discusses teaching evidence-based reading comprehension through the SSCR strategy. SSCR stands for Skimming, Scanning, Citing evidence from the text, and Close reading. It involves having students preview the text through skimming, locate specific information through scanning, cite evidence to support their ideas about the text, and closely read the text to evaluate author credibility and detect biases. The strategy is meant to help students comprehend texts at both the literal and inferential levels through actively engaging with the evidence from the text.

Week 5 Research and Information Literacy
The document describes strategies for effective academic research and information literacy. It distinguishes between primary and secondary research sources, and discusses evaluating academic versus popular sources. Search techniques like using keywords, Boolean operators, and databases are covered. The importance of questioning sources and evaluating their credibility and reliability is also emphasized.
Introductory And Body Paragraphs
The document discusses different techniques for writing effective introductory and body paragraphs for argumentative essays. It covers various forms that introductions can take, such as using definitions, comparisons, questions or delaying the thesis statement. It also discusses how to guide readers through body paragraphs using exposition to convey facts, interpretation to explain meanings, and signposts to outline what has been covered and what is coming. Effective use of sources is also addressed, emphasizing summarizing and paraphrasing over direct quotes with explanation.
Week 6 referencing
The document provides guidance on referencing sources in APA style. It discusses the two aspects of referencing: in-text citations and reference lists. Examples are given for how to reference different source types like books, journal articles, and electronic sources. Key points include only referencing information that needs to be cited, following guidelines like APA consistently, and providing a reference list in alphabetical order with full reference details for all cited sources.

The writing plan outlines an argument that vaccinations are effective and safe for preventing infectious diseases. It identifies the key points of disease eradication, decreased morbidity rates, and cost-effectiveness of vaccines. The goal is to introduce the perspective that vaccines have overall benefits to communities by providing factual evidence to debunk claims about links to autism and risks.
How to develop a research topic
The document provides guidance on developing a research topic through several steps:
1) Formulate a broad research theme by considering topics of interest and relevance to your field of study. Possible sources of inspiration include literature, current issues, and subject guides.
2) Develop a specific research question by refining your theme using techniques like the "5W method" and organizing concepts visually in diagrams. The research question should allow for elaboration rather than a simple yes/no answer.
3) Further narrow or expand your research topic if needed by taking notes on viewpoints, developments, keywords and evaluating questions based on interest level and scope. The goal is to define a clear topic that can be studied in depth.
Critical writing including evaluating resources
Academic writing can be descriptive or analytical. Descriptive writing provides background details, but should be brief to allow space for analysis and evaluation, which is needed to earn higher grades. Analysis examines reasons, relationships, and alternatives, while evaluation assesses significance, implications, and strengths or weaknesses. Critical analysis discusses evidence, theories, comparisons, and currency or relevance of ideas. Both description and analysis are important, but analytical writing is emphasized for assessment.
Week 2 reading and note taking skills
The document provides tips for effective reading, note-taking, and becoming a critical reader at the university level. It discusses strategies for smart, efficient reading like skimming, scanning, and selective reading. It emphasizes the importance of being a critical reader by questioning claims and looking for biases.

Dr. Judith Hanks discusses ways to narrow the focus of research from broad topics to specific research questions. She outlines two approaches: starting with a topic and title then developing questions and data collection, or beginning with data collection and allowing questions to emerge during analysis. Refining questions involves considering agency, feasibility, and what researchers truly want to understand. Classrooms provide rich research contexts if questions are carefully focused. Developing good questions involves curiosity, imagination, and flexibility to changing understandings.

M06 supplemental resource power point elements of rhetorical analysis
This document provides an overview of rhetorical analysis. It defines rhetoric as the art of using language to persuade or influence others. The purpose of rhetoric is to use language effectively to get readers to agree, believe, do something, learn, be entertained, trust the writer, admire the writer, see the writer as credible, and focus or overlook certain ideas. Rhetorical analysis examines how language is used effectively in written texts to achieve these goals. It considers elements like appeals to ethos, pathos and logos, structure, language, and omission of details. Thesis statements for rhetorical analysis make a claim about how effectively a text influences readers through these elements.

Distinguish between opinions the author supports and those s/he’s citing in order to argue against them. Encourage students to use their own experience and observations. Identify the author’s theoretical standpoint, political framework, biases, etc. Stress the importance of reaching the end.
- 21. Evidence-Based Reading series emphasizes close reading by requiring students to answer text-dependent questions in both literary and informational texts.This is a series of six 64-page books for students in kindergarten to grade 5.Various reading and vocabulary skills are covered, and a culminating reflection question for each passage engages students' higher- level thinking skills. Of particular emphasis throughout the series are the Common Core State Standards and the teaching of evidence-based reading. by Carson-Dellosa Publishing
