Notes from Thurs nite 1A that can help 102 class and 1A class with paper #3

 Hey there, these are some rough notes from class on thurs.... you might find them helpful;....

one way to get into the paper, is to first think about what isn’t working with education…this can be personal … this can be from memory… of course it can also be researched , academic, etc…

You can include negative thoughts about education in 3-4-5 (topic sentences)  and in commentary…to set up your POSITIVE  concepts...(think of your concepts as solutions...._)

Another way to get a foot hold into the paper  is to ask for yourself: what should be the goal of school? 

Some big concepts that can be explored (and then Rule of 3’d)
