For your fifth writing exercise, read James Paul Gee’s “Literacy, Discourse, and Linguistics: Introduction,” attached below. Then, in 1-2 pages, answer the following prompt: Write a description of the “saying (writing)-doing-being-valuing-believing” of your own primary Discourse (the one you were enculturated into at birth). Be sure to note things like grammatical usage, common phrases, tone of voice, formality of speech, and values related to that Discourse. Once you have done this, write a description of the “saying (writing)-doing-being-valuing-believing” of ACADEMIC Discourse as you have encountered it so far.
