In Stuart Greene's article on "Arguments of Conversation: The Role of Inquiry in Writing a Researched Argument" he attempts to explain how a reader will be applying the principal terms of research writing to high school students, college students, adults, or anyone trying to better learn.  He also explains how readers may come up with new research ideas and a new way of sharing the thoughts with others.  Argument is something that happens everyday.  Whether in a classroom, work area, or even a home.  The main point is how a person uses the idea of argument, in either a formal or informal way.  Greene gives tips on how to enter conversation, engage in conversation, and frame an issue.  Framing is an important technique to reading or writing a research paper.  For a reader to understand a writing, the author must have known a great deal on their topic.  This could be made possible by researching online websites, books, newspaper articles, or even by word of mouth.  The main point of focus is for the readers to become quicker and more skillful at understanding and noticing important parts in the things they read.

     In John Swale's article of "Create a Research" (CARS) Model of Research Introduction, Swales tries to explain three moves that many research introductions make.  He also explains how to read and write research papers.  The audience for his writing is for anyone wanting to better understand research papers.  His three moves are; establishing a territory, establishing a niche, and occupying a niche.

BEFORE YOU READ ACTIVITES PG 9
*Argument in my point of view is a way to get my point across.  The word is used in everyday conversation in either an academic term or an informal way of speaking.  Argument in an academic setting seems to be another word for debate in a classroom where people argue their thoughts.  The difference between my term of argument and the dictionary term is I do not argue in an angry tone when speaking about an important topic.  The dictionary term states that argument is an exchange of diverging or opposite views, typically a heated or angry one.

2) In the "oft-quoted passage" by Kenneth Burkle he explains writing in a way that if a person does not understand the writing they should not argue.  A person should fully understand something or know a portion of what they are speaking about, before engaging in an argument.  It challenges the fact or knowledge on a certain subject or topic.

3) The concept of framing is to expand research by focusing on the importance of issues instead of a particular topic.  It is almost used metaphorically in the sense that in a research paper, every topic needs to be focused on to properly understand.  Framing allows the writer the inclusion of different subjects in their work.

APPLYING AND EXPLORING PG 21
2) In Greene's article he represents conversation.  Conversation with the audience and even by including the "oft-quoted" passage that he discusses in his work.  I feel he does practice what he preaches by using writings from people who came before himself.  It is almost as a conversation with the authors discussing both of their views.

      In my opinion, Greene's article was very helpful.  It will be much easier for me to distinguish the more important parts to focus in on a research paper.  Some points made were very useful in helping me learn how to start and finish a research paper.  I feel that the article was interesting in certain ways, because I learned a few extra helpful tips.  It grabbed my attention quickly after I realized how helpful it will be to read and study over when later papers will be due.  Some of the ideas have compared to my own experiences when I have found myself lost and unable to find the right words to put into a research paper or essay.  Looking back to Greene's article will help me to write a better research paper in this semester.
