“Intellectuals
are not defined according to the jobs they do, but [by] the manner in which
they act, the way they see themselves, and the values that they uphold.” - Frank Furedi
Do This Now:
(Re)read P.1,2,18 of "Hidden Intellectualism" - make sure to annotate with ideas and/or questions
Define Intellectual - denotative vs. connotative
Select the quote that you feel best suits your definition of an intellectual
Read the Graff article "Hidden Intellectualism"
Use the "Say Something" Protocol - complete by the end of class
Work w/a partner
Decide together how you will "chunk" the text.
Read the first "chunk"
Stop and talk about what you just read.
Talk to:
Explain what you read
Ask questions about the text
Connect with the rest of the text
Jot down, underline text that you find interesting or that relates to you
Answer the Questions:
What is Graff's thesis? Restate in your own words.
What is your Hidden Intellect?
What is your area of expertise/knowledge?
How can this benefit you in the future?
