Crowd Sourced Chapter 1 Summary


Today in class we are doing a crowd sourced writing assignment.  


  1. We are going to divide into groups of 2-3 people.  
  2. Each group will have paragraph from "The Cognitive Surplus" to read and discuss the paragraph. 
  3. Boil the paragraph down to a single, clear and active thesis sentence. 
  4. Then, the groups will type their sentence into the spread sheet.  Followed by their OU IDs and names.   
  5. We will then read sections of the summary.  
  6. The assigned reading selections will be handed out to each group, via a small scrap of paper with the first few words of the paragraph included.
