For this discussion, read Rosenberg's article carefully. Then, in a response of about 300 words, reflect on the following questions:
1.In your own words, what does it mean that a scholarly text is taking part in a conversation? Why is understanding the notion of conversation crucial when you approach academic texts as a reader?
2.Rosenberg mentions that academic texts follow a "formula." How can knowing the formula of a particular kind of text help you to read it more effectively? ( It may help to think about this as a question of genre.)
3.What strategies described by Rosenberg sound most useful? How you will apply her suggestions to your own reading?
