Overview: The argument analysis paper will focus on Blommaert & Varis (2015) “Enoughness, accent, and light communities,” which we have discussed in detail in our course. If you have completed homework carefully, you should be well prepared to write this 1000-1200-word analysis.
The task of this assignment is to identify what the argument is and how Blommaert & Varis (2015) make it, as well as why it is significant. The key to this assignment is not trying to account for every point the authors make, but rather focusing on the kernel of the argument and explaining how Blommaert & Varis (2015) get there through subclaims and evidence. What problems do Blommaert & Varis (2015) address? What are the key takeaways?
This analysis is not asking you simply to summarize or paraphrase the article’s information point by point. You may have written something like that in the past if you were asked to write a “summary.” Instead, the task is for you to analyze the argument by breaking it into parts and explaining how Blommaert & Varis (2015) have presented and organized evidence to support claims/subclaims. Your final paper will engage the paper complexly; it will not progress only in chronological order through the authors’ argument.
Each student’s analysis and interpretation of Blommaert & Varis (2015) will be slightly different. Remember that as this is an analysis about the authors’ argument, it is not about the issue in general, and it is not to be about your own perspective on it. There will be no additional sources permitted in the assignment.
Rationale: This type of paper is the first step toward entering an academic conversation because it requires you to re-articulate another author’s point of view. All research participates in an ongoing academic conversation, and to do so responsibly, you must be able to demonstrate that you understand the voices that have already spoken. In research articles, this kind of argument analysis writing is usually found in the review of literature section.
Audience: The audience of this paper is an academic audience interested in studying identity. This audience is not familiar with Blommaert.
Process: Re-read Blommaert & Varis (2015), annotating the text as necessary. Be mindful of how they craft the argument, what sections there are, and how they signal their argument’s organization to the reader. Students will do several planning and pre-writing activities to help them structure their papers. They will submit a drafted paper and receive instructor feedback, which they will be expected to thoughtfully incorporate into the final draft.
Organization/The Parts: This paper should contain an introduction, a 2-paragraph body, and a conclusion. The introduction should include your key claim (i.e. what and how Blommaert & Varis (2015) make an argument) and a brief preview of the body of the paper. The 2 body paragraphs should each be carefully crafted around a point or topic sentence that captures the claim of the paragraph, followed by sentences that show/explain where in the chapter you found support for the claims. With only 2 body paragraphs to work with, you must have a very clear sense of what you are arguing and how you will organize it.
Format: Your final draft must be 3-4 double-spaced pages (1000-1200 words) using Times New Roman (or equivalent) 12 point font with one-inch margins. Include page numbers, a title that reflects the content of your paper (“My Analysis Paper” is not sufficient), and reference list (containing the course source only) in APA format. Please, clearly state your name, course, and assignment on the top left corner of the first page of your assignment (or on a title page), as follows:

The following constitute forms of inappropriate collaboration or submissions that will be deemed as plagiarism and will result in an academic integrity violation.
1. Talking to your classmate(s) or other CMUQ students about an assignment and submitting work that includes the same ideas and/or uses the same language as your classmate’s work in some portion of the assignment or in the entire assignment.
2. Receiving help from someone who may have ideas and use vocabulary that you may not understand if asked to explain.
3. Submitting somebody’s writing as your own writing.
4. Copying and pasting information from our course readings, other texts, the discussion board, or the internet without referencing the source.
5. Submitting writing generated by Artificial Intelligence (AI) programs your own (See below for more details).
Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) programs in your writing:
We recognize that there are a variety of AI programs such as ChatGPT or Bard available to assist writers. AI programs are not a replacement for human creativity, originality, and critical thinking. Writing is a craft that takes time and effort to develop. You need to take ownership of your

Be aware that AI-generated writing includes factual errors, made-up sources, unpredictable changes to flow, impersonal language, voiceless writing, and inconsistent task or assignment completion. Submitting AI-generated writing that includes factual errors or made-up sources will constitute an academic integrity violation.
You are not authorized to use AI to produce writing for this class and claim it as your own. Unauthorized forms of AI assistance include claiming ownership of a claim generated by AI and using AI to modify or correct a claim you wrote. However, there will be opportunities in the course to explore authorized uses of AI in your writing. For these uses, you will receive significant guidance on the appropriate use and attribution of AI. For example, we may work on improving our writing skills by critiquing and enhancing AI responses to a prompt, brainstorming ideas for major papers, or revising your existing work. You may not, however, construe this limited use as permission to use these technologies in any other facet of this course. Using these tools without my permission and
guidance puts your academic integrity at risk.
