Article Analysis

        1. First, you must slowly and closely read (or if a/v, watch or isten to) each assigned text, and vigorously annotate (highlight, and underline key points and your thoughts on these key points) as you do so. 2. Second, you must go back to your annotations, and pull out the most important quotes (those which illuminate the author’s main points) and type them out (appropriately, with quotation marks). In your homework assignment, bold these quotes, so that they are distinguishable from your interpretations. 3. Third, underneath each bolded quote that you type out, you must include your own interpretation of the meaning of each key quote, in your own words.
