Please make sure I have a paper copy of the observation topic you want to pursue for your research paper. The slideshow that we looked at in class is available here. Remember, we only looked at the "observation" part of the slideshow.
Then, please read pages 935-940 in your white book, which is an excerpt from an autobiography of Zitkala Sa.
After you have done reading, please choose a section that you are going to analyze for style, focusing on what words mean (diction, imagery, figurative language) and where words are (syntax, structure, pacing.) Type up a paragraph (one half page or so) analysis of the use of language and the effect that these choices are having on the reader. You should use direct quotations and formal voice. Please try to make observations like your white book modeled on the Ellison and Didion passages.
Submit your analysis to Turnitin.
