Then watch this 13-minute video about diglossia at Georgetown University, an elite private institution where a number of students of low economic means receive scholarships.https://youtu.be/4HIe4qwObUk (Links to an external site.)Note that they use the term “code switching” in the video to talk about how people shift between different dialects according to the context of interaction. That’s actually called “style shifting” in linguistics; “code-switching” in linguistics is when you switch between languages or dialects in the very same conversation.
In a few sentences describe how one or more aspects of the politics of language use described by Shin are relevant for understanding the Georgetown students’ experience of diglossia. Then conclude with a few sentences describing what stood out to you most from both the reading and the video.
At the end of your assignment, list at 3-5 countries with bilingual or multilingual communities that you would be interested in exploring for your end-of-term, group project.

Online Assignment #8: Using Evidence to Support an Argument

Before beginning the assignment, pick the topic that you will argue for in your final paper based on the list of potential topics provided by your instructor. Once you have chosen a topic, complete the following steps:

Based on your topic, write a one-sentence thesis statement about the position you will argue in your final paper. Make sure it corresponds with one of the provided topics.

For EACH of the three types of evidence we discussed in class (examples, statistics, and testimonials), find one source that fits that type of evidence (e.g., for statistics, X% of people are influenced by this or Y program costs x amount of dollars; for examples, describe a story or theoretical piece that illustrates a viewpoint; for testimonial, find an interview or the actual words/opinion of a stakeholder). Academic articles, books, and primary documents are all great sources. Newspapers and editorials can also be used, but be selective. Each source must be relevant to your position on your final paper topic.

(1) Provide details about each of the three sources you find. You can (and are encouraged) to use quotes from your articles/books (provided you cite your courses), but you are required to interpret any quotes that you use in your own words. Additionally, explain how this type of evidence will be useful in supporting your argument.

(2) Provide a citation for each of the three sources. Make sure these citations match the example templates provided in your Written Persuasive Appeal folder on eCampus (using APA 6th edition format). Visit http://libguides.wvu.edu/apa for clarification on APA style.

Organization tip: Consider organizing this assignment by each of the three sources. Specifically, provide the citation for the source and then under the citation answer the questions about that source before moving on to the next source.

This assignment aligns with Course Learning Outcome 2.

2) What are two complicating (supporting) arguments Kein makes about Notaro and how do you see these connecting to each other and the thesis? Explain in no fewer than 8-10 sentences.

3) If Notaro were to have written her article about another comedian that we’ve studied so far, who do you think she would have chosen and why? Draw upon two different quotes from the article and at least one quote from the comedian to ground your answer.
