Which exercises will work best at this stage in the writing process? Handouts that mark-out your overview of the chapter work well, though your classmates can also make notes.
If you want students to bring materials to class for your presentation handbooks, photos, ads, magazines, paper drafts, etc , you may send them emails through Blackboard, or make an announcement beforehand. I am also willing to help you as needed, so if there is something I can do let me know. Think as a student: Which exercises worked best for you at this stage? Which were forgettable? If you lead an exercise in class, test it before you present so that you know how long it will take, and how many you'll have time for.
Confer between members on which ones seemed most effective. Make sure any assignments you give the class for homework will help them advance their papers, but you are authorized to do so. Note: Some chapters have a lot going on, so you'll need to really focus on covering the most pertinent material and exercises with the class. Will your classmates have drafts in hand to work with?
Should they bring in sources or pre-draft material? Following is an evaluation form for your use as you evaluate the various groups and give them feedback on their presentations. In the process, this should help with quote integration and MLA citation, and will give students practice looking for sources, especially when finding books in the library.
Suggested Time: Two class sessions. As homework, each group should then find, read, and summarize the source they are assigned. This might be best accomplished by highlighting or marking the physical page to see where the sources appeared within the essay and making notes in the margins.
Each member of the group should have their own photocopy of the source; posting it on Blackboard and asking students to print it off might be the best way to facilitate. It may also help to note the different ways the author transitions from his own words to source material. Additional Information: Ideally this exercise would have better success using a research paper with more sources.

These decisions may be ones of word choice, organization, logic, evidence, and tone. Keep in mind that this juncture can be unsettling for some students.
Having made lots of major decisions in getting their ideas down on the page, they may be reluctant to tackle another round of decision-making required for revising or clarifying ideas or sentences. They will need to be able to sell their ideas through the words and arrangement of words on the page for a specific audience. Many of these exercises can be used in short in-class writing assignments, as part of group work, or as incremental steps in producing a paper.
