This week you will make initial contact with the other members of your peer review group for the analysis project and we will schedule a time for our hangout in Week 5. In addition to discussing the reading from Net Smart, you will also complete a short rhetorical analysis assignment from Writer/Designer. This analysis will give you practice that will help prepare you for the longer analysis assignment in this unit, and we will discuss the results of the assignment during our hangout next week.
