| 1 | Examine how attitudes towards linguistic standards empower and oppress language users. | Explore how views on language standards can affect speakers positively and negatively | 4 | My synthesis essay is about this same topic and I spoke about it when I mentioned that it positively affects speakers because it can help them grow out of their shell but it also negatively affects them because they also grow away from their roots. |
| 2 | Explore and analyze, in writing and reading, a variety of genres and rhetorical situations. | Look at writings and readings that help us understand different genres and rhetorical situations a little deeper. | 3 | We read a few readings and videos like this that helped me understand situations a little deeper such as readings like “Theme for English B” and “Mothers tongue” and videos like “why I keep speaking up” and “Ways to speak English” |
| 3 | Develop strategies for reading, drafting, collaborating, revising, and editing. | Find different ways to complete steps to writing an essay. | 4 | I’ve written a few essays and in every essay I complete the steps differently and have a new goal for each essay. One essay I might’ve tried to complete all in one day with the help of Chatgpt or grammarly and then another essay ive tried to fully do myself but without the help of those websites. |
| 4 | Recognize and practice key rhetorical terms and strategies when engaged in writing situations. | Understand key rhetorical terms and put them into practice in different writing tasks | 3 | Not too sure on my performance on this. |

| 6 | Locate research sources (including academic journal articles, magazine and newspaper articles) in the library’s databases or archives and on the Internet and evaluate them for credibility, accuracy, timeliness, and bias. | Find research sources from many different places and see if they are reliable and accurate. | 4 | For my synthesis essay I found many sources whether it was from readings that we were assigned to read like Amy Tans “Mother tongue”, or readings I found from my own research such as “The Costs of Code-Switching” from The Atlantic. Both of these sources I used in my synthesis essay and are reliable sources. |
| 7 | Compose texts that integrate a stance with appropriate sources, using strategies such as summary, analysis, synthesis, and argumentation. | Write pieces that clearly express your pov while including relevant sources through summary, analysis, synthesis, and argument. | 4 | My synthesis essay shows my perspective on why I feel like there is a negative effect on non native speakers and I used reliable sources from all over the internet to support my argument |
| 8 | Practice systematic application of citation conventions. | Practice correctly following citation guidelines in a structured way. | 3 | I believe I did a decent job at citing all my sources in my synthesis essay. |
