Framing

Framing an artifact has four purposes:

  1. Analyze the key components
  2. Point out rhetorical moves that we can use in our own writing
  3. Make connections (if possible) with other texts we have read
    • How does this text shed light on previous texts? How does it give new insights into previous texts? How does it disagree or agree with previous texts?
  4. Spark discussion with insightful questions & provocative quotations from the text

These artifacts were each assigned to one or two students to frame according to the guidelines above.
