Blog 12-15 and 23-27
Blog 12-15 is all of my revisions for the short analysis paper and you can see what revisions have been made.
In blogs 23-27 is all the drafts of my discourse analysis paper.

For paper- use the rubric out of 100 points
 Focus (30): clear statement of the research question(s) + the importance of the research and what it shows
direct statements of what the data shows
set up any background information necessary for the reader to understand the focus
appropriate choice of research essays
data is connected to the focus/makes points with respect to the focus

 For the focus I should get a 27. I know that the focus relates to my topic but I might be off on one or two points to the paper. 

Audience/genre (25)
uses the correct forms for research essays
uses language the ways it is used in the sample research essays
draws authority from other research and the logic of the argument

For this section I should get a 23. I might have misused some language terms in the paper. 

Organization (20)
data is presented in the right place
one idea leads logically to the next
definitions/data/categories  are presented and explained before they are "used" or referred to
uses headings + paragrphing in ways suitable for the material
each section develops the focus in a different way

Organization should receive 20 points. I have all the proper heading and all of my data and analysis is organizes by code and headings are used to separate the paper in its sections. 

Development (20)
detailed examples from the data to support the points
says what the examples show
connects to the discussion of the research
develops an in-depth (not obvious) discussion of what the data show

Development should receive 18. I am not sure if all of my points are developed to the way that they should be in a discourse analysis paper. 

Correctness (5)
writing sufficiently clear so as not to confuse the meaning
not so many errors as to distract from the meaning of the text

Correctness should receive all 5 points. All of the points in the paper flow together and nothing is confusing to the readers when they read the paper. All of the grammatical errors are fixed throughout the paper.
