ENGL1130:905 Comp II: AC Discip and Discrse Week 2: Hancock Response Drop Box

Read the attached document, “A Matter of Attitude” from Elise Hancock’s book Ideas into Words: Mastering the Craft of Scientific Writing (also available in Bb > Readings & Videos). 

Hancock shares several insights she has about “being” a writer and “doing” the writing and encourages you to cultivate and nurture an attitude that supports strong writing. 

In your response, discuss your own thoughts and experiences on writing nonfiction (science-based or other) and what, if any, challenges you encountered. In addition, choose and directly quote at least 3 statements or phrases that you found particularly intriguing, enlightening, or helpful, and discuss why those ideas have an impact on you, whether personally as a student and/or as a person pursuing your chosen career.

See The Little Seagull Handbook pp. 330-336 and Bb > Writing & Research Resources > Research & Citation Links > Integrating Sources into Your Writing for information on best-practices using signal phrases and in-text citations. 

Example quote and citation format: 

Author’s name(s) in signal phrase:

According to Hancock (2003), “[direct quote]” (p. 8).

Author’s name NOT in signal phrase: 

Practice being a writer; for example, “[direct quote]” (Hancock, 2003, p. 10). 

A couple of tips (see more in the Writing & Research Resources):

• Do NOT change the meaning of a quote or take it out of context to “twist” the author’s words.
• Make sure that the entire sentence, from signal/introductory phrase to quote from source, is grammatically correct.
• ** I am not requiring a formal References page for this response.
