I decided what was most important for the draft by looking at the examples given to us. From there I got an understanding on what I need to do and while reading through my sources I picked out details that either helped me better understand the topic or connected to another source. I decided to leave out the whole sentence from one of my quotes because it was unnecessary and would have made the essay a lot wordier. My steps were to first look at the examples and decide what organization I wanted to research. Then I started reading about Rebelthon and looked at their website and social media. I then reread Johns article and then was able in my research to connect Rebelthon to being a discourse community. I then skimmed through the articles we have read before and came across Kain and Warddler’s article and was able to make a connection with Johns. I brought the consumptions of Rebelthon being a fundraiser and campaign for children’s hospitals and to check this I did research on Rebelthon through their website. I tried to connect all my research back to each other while making it sensible. The information I still need is really the interviews and what it means to the people to be a part of Rebelthon.
