Discussion: Analysis
To generate analysis, scholarly writers ask themselves questions about the evidence, such as What does this piece of evidence mean? How does it bolster my argument? How does this piece of evidence connect to another piece? What do I want my readers to understand or get from this evidence?

In this Discussion, you practice answering these questions by analyzing the evidence from Week 3.

To prepare for this Discussion:

Review the Week 3 Discussion for your paraphrased evidence as well as any feedback received.
Review the Learning Resources on analysis.
Recall the argument you are making.
By Day 4
Post your initial 1- to 2-paragraph response that addresses the following:

Using the evidence you identified and paraphrased in Week 3, analyze that evidence in the context of the argument you are making.

By Day 6
Respond to at least two colleagues by doing one of the following:

Give feedback on their analysis
