Step 1: Access and read the article, “Pen as a bridge: instructor perspectives on incorporating diversity and inclusion in writing-intensive courses,” by Brock, C., Sanchez, N., & Sharpe, D.L.
You can access this article on the following link: Pen as bridge article
Step 2: Create an annotation of this article as if you were considering it for a source in a paper. Here’s how:
- List the article in APA format, as the video describes.
- Write a 150-200 word summary/critique of the article in which you not only summarize the article but also note any strengths or weaknesses you find in it. In addition, mention whether it will be a possible article for an essay on the topic of teaching or writing about diversity and inclusion. (Please note: you won’t be writing about this topic for your own writing assignments.)
Your annotation thus should include the following:
- The focus of the study (~ 1-2 sentences
- Conclusion(s) of the study (~ 1-2 sentences)
- Analysis of the study (e.g., any strengths or weaknesses? Anything that was particularly remarkable/helpful?) (~ 1-2 sentences)
- Its relevance to research on issues of diversity and inclusion in writing courses (~ 1-2 sentences)
