Your task is to write a “3-Part Source Integration" to explain what you learned from reading Farrell's article. A “3-Part Source Integration” is a three-sentence statement that includes the title of the text, the author’s name, author information (who is she), source material (information from the article) that is either paraphrased or directly quoted, and a brief statement explaining the significance (the importance) of the paraphrase or quotation.
The following is an example of a “3-Part Source Integration.”
Sample “3-Part Source Integration”:
In “Ethanol’s Failed Promise,” Lester Brown and Jonathan Lewis, two environmental activists, claim that food-to-fuel mandates are causing damage to our environment (par. 3). This is important because as America moves toward energy independence it must be vigilant to ensure that new energy sources do not cause new problems.
On a separate piece of paper, write your 3-Part Source Integration, edit it for mistakes, then post it in the comments for the post.
Once you publish your 3-Part Source Integration, it will appear here!

ReplyDeleteFormer English teacher Emily Farrell, wrote an article "Advice on college essays : Forget tears and Christmas." She urges students to write about the crazy events in student's lives and not the bad or boring times. Farrell advises to avoid writing about your parent's or grandpa's death.Admissions readers want to hear about how proud someone is of their relatives or to inform about conditions in Vietnam. It is importanat to follow Farrell's advice because your competing against 30,000 students and this essay would help a student stand out.

ReplyDeleteFormer English Teacher Emily Farrell wrote an article called "Advice on College Essays: Forget Tears and Christmas." She advises in the Essay to write about exciting things happening in your life, instead of just bragging about your accomplishments. For Example, which Emily stated in her article, you can write about your mean, cheap, scary great-aunt whose inheritance holds the family hostage. The Essay Readers don't want to read another boring essay about your accomplishments, they want to read an interesting essay which will make them smile or laugh. You should listen to Emily's advice because you are going to go against 30,000 people applying to the same college you want to go to.
