   Went through a step by step process of posting on the blog. Used our Universe assignment as an example

   Different amounts of writing require different forms of writing. For example, a 100 word response allows little to no room for fluff and the words written must count

   We did a riddle to remind us that words that we use all day everyday might require further investigation

   Went through an example of a research paper on My White Paper

   Question- suppose you had a piece of paper where you could fold many times. The physical limit is 8 times before you can’t fold it anymore. But suppose you can fold it as much as you can. The first fold is 2, then 4, etc… how many times would you have to fold the piece of paper before it could reach the moon. It’s about a million miles
   Answer-48

   We will take a survey about My White Paper technique

   It’s a bucket where you dump your research

   Copy bibliographic info and put it in the white paper

   Once you read and investigate, you can begin prewriting and summarizing

   The better you do summarizing, the more you’ve started writing your paper

   Process of synthesizing material and communicating it is summarizing

   Always a work in progress. A document that gets bigger throughout the semester and is graded on periodically

   Always go in planning on a rewrite to get the piece better and better

   Grade suffers if you don’t keep up with the progress and continue to rewrite to make your work better

   This is a thinking, rewriting, and revising class. A work in progress

   Write to find out what we believe

   We do not have a thought in our heads

   When thoughts turn into language that’s where you find out what you believe

   Thinking gets you nowhere. Talking makes some sense because you’re making some sort of language

   Thinking doesn’t occur during reading, it occurs during writing

   When you engage in sources that’s when you begin with your hypothesis

   Share what you find surprising, it’ll probably be surprising to somebody else too

   10,000-20,000 words gathered by the time you’re done-a good white paper

   Next step is removing all of the excess information to make a coherent and condensed paper

   It’s in the details where you should think outside of the box
