your assignment is to write a biographical or autobiographical anecdote directly related to your career goals or lifestyle as a nurse.
Read Chapter 6 Creating Anecdotes & Arguments
Before you start writing your anecdote, read Chapter 6 from the book From Silence to Voice, which I emailed to you. I am also attaching a copy to the assignment description in Orbund.
2. Pay close attention to the list on page 134, and in the pages following in this section “How to Construct Anecdotes about Your Work.”
3. Draft your anecdote! Write out a rough draft of the story you are telling as a nurse or a future nurse.
4. Before you submit your work to me, check your draft. Does your anecdote meet the standards listed on page 134?
Did you paint a picture?
Did you avoid using jargon?
Did you use facts and/or statistics to support points you made in your anecdote?
Did you “paint yourself into the picture” by sharing details about yourself?
Did you “paint the whole picture”? Who? What? Where? When? How?
5. Lastly, revise your anecdote. Add any missing details, correct any mistakes, and submit your composition.
