Templates

Hey everyone. I'm in the RC section of the CC currently and was wondering if anyone has access to the "template" that @"Accounts Playable" references in his webinar? I can't seem to locate where it is. Thanks a lot!

It should be under the vast majority of the RC video explanations. To be more exact, you should be able to find at least one if you look at a test in the 60's under passages 3 or 4. Hope this helps!

If you can't find it I can send you one of mine.

Damn I can't seem to locate it! Maybe its because I don't have Ultimate +...do you mind sending me one of yours @JustDoIt? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Here is Account playable's from 68-1-1
Breakdown:
Paragraph 1: The corrido is a narrative folk song that used familiar and conventional conventions regarding the Border region.

Paragraph 2: The stories are often simple and swift, and they generally use very little imagery. When they do decide to use metaphors, the subject matter of the metaphor is familiar.

Paragraph 3: Corridos also have similar closing lines that are reused in other corridos.

MP: Corridos are folk songs that use familiar subject matter and reused elements.

Tone: The author doesn’t really show a lot of attitude in this passage. Line 52 does indicate that he thinks corridos are unique.

Viewpoints: Some contrast between corridos and Spanish ballads.

Structure: Paragraph 1 gives some context about corridos. Paragraphs 2-3 give more details about common elements in corridos. This passage is highly descriptive.

Hey guys. So this may be a dumb question but if you're doing the template above its supposed to be done from straight memory right? No looking back on the passage? Thanks

I personally refer to the passage. I make these during my blind review. It's very useful if you are doing the memory method, because you can compare your timed, and untimed thought processes.

I think you can use a combination of both. I generally use memory for low-res and for high-res I might look back at the passage for the key words. For structure, tone, and MP it's probably best to try to do it without referring to the passage though.
