the rich =/= someone who has something I can't afford :(

the rich = the fucking rich

The reader is left with the impression that he is rather passive in the reading process, while the book is active. But, in reality, the reader is the one who breathes life into the book.

Week 6 Reading Response

For this weeks reading, chapter 4 discusses the different types of reading processes to help us find valid information relating to the research questions we will be answering. Everyone has their own reading process, I tend to use research databases to find scholarly secondary sources relating to my topic of research and I also tend to do a lot of in-depth reading on these academic articles. Although I despise these type of articles, due to the amount of pages I have to read, I take my time making sure I know what I am reading and if it relates to my topic. Sometimes I find myself becoming more interested as I read and wanting to go beyond the boundaries and explore more in order to improve my knowledge. To me, my reading process is very effective in that i gain a lot of knowledge that I can use later on in my field of study, but sometimes find myself coming across an obstacle. One that has happened before, is that i read a lab report to find out it doesn’t correlate with my topic and at times the research database doesn’t have the article I am looking for. Sometimes I get bored reading long lab reports, so I tend to shallow read and highlight key points and make sure that it is relevant to my research. When reading rhetorically, I found myself using exigence-audience-constraints with the genre analysis paper. It is a good method to use when analyzing any genre or article. I still prefer Aristotle’s argumentative appeal’s; ethos, pathos, logos and kairos. It is possible to combine these two methods and help support your research in overall it’s almost like writing another genre analysis. With this reading and the CRAAP video, i understand more on what i need to look for when researching the questions I proposed. I believe CRAAP will help most effectively to determine if the articles, interviews, magazines, etc. are acceptable in order for me to conduct my Lit Review.
