When Gee talks about joining other Discourse she says, “… Lack of fluency may very well mark you as a pretender to the social role instantiated  in the Discourse. There is , thus no workable “  (10).

I used this technique because I mention Gee’s name but not the page.  By saying Gee’s name I refer to his work I just need the page number so the read knows where to find the information.

“Our bodies change our mind and our minds can change our behavior, and our behavior can change our outcomes, they say to me, ‘it feels fake’ Right? So I said, fake it till you make it.” (Cuddy 11). 

I use this technique here because I use a quote from Cuddy but I did not mention Cuddy’s name or page so I must refer to Cuddy and the page the quote in passage.

Embedded Quotation

Discourses is how you act and do things in your everyday life, which I think of “a Discourse is a sort of ‘identity kit’ which comes complete with the appropriate costume and instructions on how to act, talk, and often write so as to take on a particular that others will recognized.”  (Gee 7). 

This is an embedded quote because I use a quote from Gee’s paper in my sentence without mentioning Gee before or after using the quote

Block Quotation

In Gee’s piece he gives an example of a person walking into a bar in this example Gee says

     “ It is not just how you say it, but what you are and do when you say it. If I enter my neighborhood bar and say to         my drinking buddy, as I sit down, “Gimme a match, wouldya?” while placing a napkin on the bar stool to avoid             getting my newly pressed designer jeans dirty, I have said the right thing, but my “saying-doing” combination is           nonetheless all wrong”.

This is paraphrasing because I use one of Cuddy’s quotes for my idea but I don’t use it word for word I put my touch and thought into this quote

Summary

James Gee, Linguist who wrote Literacy, Discourse, and Linguistics: Introduction. Gee introduces the concept of Discourses. He calls a Discourses an identity kit, which is how people act, talk, and write. In his discussion he talks about primary and secondary Discourses. The difference between Primary Discourses and secondary Discourses, Your primary Discourses is your home it is where you  first learn everything.  A secondary Discourse is is something you   learn from social interactions.     

This is a summary because I am summing up how Gee explains what Discourse are summary don’t need citations because they are your own words.

Ellipses

“…Our bodies change our mind and our minds can change our behavior, and our behavior can change our outcomes, they say to me, “it feels fake.” Right? So I said, fake it till you make it.” (Cuddy 11).

This would be ellipses because I do not use the full quote I just use part and I show that by putting the three dots at the beginning or end
