Definition (or Categorical) Rewrite

As you did before with your Visual Argument and your followup Visual Rewrite, you’ll be required to revise and re-post your Definition (or Categorical) Argument as a Definition Rewrite, in a new Category, A07: Definition Rewrite.

Whatever improvements you make to your Definition argument, you can also copy back to your first assignment, A06: Definition Category Essay.

For the time being, then, both posts will be identical but with different titles. The only difference will be what happens in the future.

• Your A06 grade will be a permanent part of your Non-portfolio collection of assignments.
• You can continue to improve your A07 right up until the day Portfolios are due, although feedback may be very limited, and you will never again receive a specific grade for improvements you make. The final version will contribute to your overall holistic Portfolio grade.

Works Cited
You’ll need to cite two sources for this Rewrite, which can be different from those you selected for your first draft, A06.
