Cluster of My Controversy

Clustering in a visual map benefits my writing process greatly, because it allows me to carefully plan and organize with the information I've gathered. The Coggle below details the key players on each side, what statements they have made, what their values/ideologies are, and the spaces that they are sharing their opinions in. This mind map will be incredibly beneficial when I begin to create my Quick Reading Guide.

Reflection: In browsing Tyler and Jessi's mental maps of their controversy, I was fascinated by how differently people organize their information. Things that would seem to go together for me went under different categories for someone else, but it still all made sense. Whereas I had major, big branches that supported littler ones, my peers had vines that extended to tell more of a story. I will keep this in mind when drafting and editing my QRG.

  1. Hi! I thought you did a great job with your cluster! It's very straightforward but still conveys all the information you want to include in your draft. As an outsider who doesn't know much about your topic, I thought it was easy to read and I understood the general ideas of your controversy.
